We had an amazing time during our recent vulture-themed Blooming in the Garden! Participants kicked off the day with the story of a misunderstood vulture who then became friends with their fellow creatures. Everyone got creative making their own vultures and then took a trip through the garden where we learned some basic identification of our local vultures! To wrap up, participants had the opportunity to plant native seeds to take home and start their own gardens. We look forward to next month, on October 3rd, when we will be looking into the world of the Roseate Spoonbill! Registration is open on our website! https://ow.ly/UN5350ZJLp1
