Garden Critters

Full—Waitlist Started

Monday, June 13, 2022 through Friday, June 17, 2022 — 9 am - 12:30 pm

Young campers roam our gardens in search of ladybugs, lizards, and more....

What child doesn't love to hold a ladybug, play hide and seek with lizards, or jump like a grasshopper?

Our Garden Critters camp builds on a child's innate curiosity and fascination finding a new critter each day during garden explorations, lessons, games, and crafts. The camp week concludes with smiles, new friends, and a keepsake craft with each day's critter.

This half-day, week-long adventure is one of our most popular camps and is a great opportunity to introduce your little garden critter to the Arboretum.

Campers bring a bagged lunch and snack from home.

Note: This week of Garden Critters camp will be the same activities as the Garden Critters camp in July. Campers should not be registered for both weeks of camp since activities will be repeated.

Camp registration will be limited to 12 campers. Campers will be required to follow NC State University Community Standards.
