Join us for a Summer Habitat Walk and experience nature in its most vibrant season. July marks the height of summer—days stretch long, filled with warmth and golden sunlight. The Garden comes alive as plants, animals, and insects take full advantage of the season’s abundance.
Walk through our sunlit meadow, where wildflowers bloom in every direction. Bees buzz from flower to flower, and butterflies drift lazily through the air. The stream sparkles with movement, as dragonflies and damselflies skim the surface. If you look closely, you may even spot frogs resting on rocks or turtles sunning on logs.
Birdsong fills the air, and if you’re lucky, you’ll catch a glimpse of baby birds testing their wings as they leave the nest. In the wooded areas, cool shade offers a refreshing contrast. Ferns grow thick beneath the trees, mushrooms pop up after summer rains, and squirrels chatter from high branches.
The Summer Habitat Walk invites you to slow down and notice the seasonal changes all around. Each step along the trail reveals something new—an insect darting past, a bloom just opened, or the call of a hidden bird.
Bring your curiosity and a sense of wonder. Whether you explore the stream’s edge, wander through the wildflower meadow, or stroll beneath tall trees, you’ll find the Garden humming with summer life.
So take a break from your routine and discover the richness of this season. The Summer Habitat Walk is your chance to connect with nature at its most active, colorful, and alive. Come see summer on full display across the Garden’s meadow, stream, and wooded habitats.
