Bugging Out: Walk for Kids

At least 950 species—and counting—of insects and spiders have been sighted in Green-Wood. Herbivores and carnivores, pollinators and parasites, beneficial and detrimental, beautiful and, sometimes, frightening—the tiny life-forms that creep, crawl, buzz, and flutter provide a fascinating wealth of knowledge about the world around us.

Join expert guide Matthew Wills for a family-friendly afternoon of insect watching! In the same spirit as bird watching, you’ll observe those tiny invertebrates that your favorite birds eat and that pollinate the flowers around us.

This event is recommended for children, ages 4-12. Children MUST be accompanied by an adult, and adult ticket holders MUST be accompanied by a child. Adults and children (ages 4 and older) are required to purchase tickets.
