FREE FAMILY THURSDAY season is around the corner!! We are excited to see 🪱 Carter's Compost , 🦅Skegemog Raptor Center, and 🪲 G.T. Butterfly House & Bug Zoo again this year. We also can't wait to kick it off and have fun with a bubble themed dance party and DJ LMNOP. 🫧🎶

We hope to see you there at these all ages, free family events! If you can only make one of them, come to the Harvest Party on August 13th to help us celebrate our gardeners hard work! We will have this big party from 5 to 7pm.

Big thank you to ReVo Lawn for being this year's sponsor and for all the hard work they put into the garden.

📣The Mobile Museum needs help at Kids Free Fishing Day this year!

We're looking for volunteers to help kids and families paint Gyotaku--Japanese fish prints-- this Saturday (6/20) any time 9am-1pm. No experience needed! Just a couple hours of your time would help us add some colorful pizzazz to this beloved TC tradition!
