Join us for a family-friendly celebration of our amazing local pollinators with FlutterFest, a reimagining of our popular Gnome & Fairy Day! Dressed in your favorite pollinator costume (bee, butterfly, bird, bat, etc.) get ready to explore and engage with nature at the numerous activity stations set up around Prairie Ridge. From underwater pond explorations to butterfly wing decorating to bee home crafting to Monarch citizen science projects, we’ll have all your favorite activities from Gnome & Fairy Day (plus a few new additions!) to help you and your family engage with nature and learn about the pollinators that call North Carolina home!
This is a free program beginning at 9am, with activities spread out between the Outdoor Classroom, Nature PlaySpace, and Prairie Ridge pond. Come dressed for the weather in your best pollinator costume and be prepared to take a walk! This program is designed for families with children ages 0 to 10 and includes walking between stations on uneven grass- and gravel-covered paths.
