SUMMARY:Spring Adopt-a-Tree Treeplanting!
DESCRIPTION:Join us with your family and friends to adopt and plant trees at Riverbend.\nSpring is a wonderful time to plant trees\, just as the preserve is coming back to life.

This event is open to all ages. Please bring your own water and work gloves. \nThis is a Riverbend PAY WHAT YOU WISH Event: \nThe true cost to Riverbend to offer this educational event to the public is $35 per family. We recognize that for some families\, this is unaffordable. Therefore\, we invite you to choose the price you wish to pay for this event. In doing so\, you help make environmental education accessible to ALL children\, regardless of their family’s financial situation.

SUMMARY:The Secret Garden: Kids Read and Explore
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a day out\, on your day off. Natural Lands is pleased to partner with Longwood Gardens’ 11th annual Community Read initiative with a look at how gardening is good for all.   \nWe’ll read The Secret Garden\, based on the novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett and adapted by Calista Brill\, and celebrate the spring season. After the story\, we‘ll explore Binky Lee’s secret garden and search for flowers\, connect to nature\, and enjoy fresh air… just like the main character\, Mary Lennox.  \nFamilies are invited to attend these nature discovery events designed to inspire a sense of wonder about the natural world. Through the sharing of stories each playful exploration engages both adults and children as we make new discoveries about the plants and animals in this beautiful forest habitat. Because we believe that we protect the places that we love\, we hope to inspire young children to feel a friendly\, respectful connection to nature and form a foundation for curiosity and enjoyment to last a lifetime. Families are welcome to stay after the event to enjoy a byo picnic. \nThis event is made possible with generous support from  \nThe Kulicke Fund.

Watch as meat and other provisions are cured and preserved in the Smokehouse\, check out a cooking demonstration in the Summer Kitchen\, and more! \nAll ages; Free.
