Blossoms and Bugs Family Fest at Heller Nature Center

Spring into Nature offers families the chance to explore, play and discover together, from blooming flowers to the tiny creatures that help the world grow. Participants can enjoy nature activities, kid-friendly crafts, live animals, meet insects and pollinators and take part in spring-themed adventures with Walter the Raccoon throughout the grounds.

Guests are encouraged to bring a picnic blanket and enjoy snacks on the lawn while listening to music. The program is open to all ages.

Free Admission
