SUMMARY:Garden Story Walk
DESCRIPTION:Come out to the gardens for a Garden Story Walk. Enjoy a walk through the beautiful gardens and read a good story at the same time! \nThis story will be out in the gardens from Saturday\, August 1 until Sunday\, August 9 during garden open hours. \nNot familiar with Story Walks? Story Walks are self-guided experiences where pages of a book are displayed in the garden. Information about where to find the title page is posted at the Visitor Center. Once you find the first page of the story in the garden\, you’ll see the next page and be able to follow the story as you stroll through the gardens. There is no set time to start this experience and can be done at your own pace. Most stories can be experienced in about half an hour to an hour.

SUMMARY:Plant Lover's Tour: "Trees that Make Great Shade" with Greg Paige\, JCRA Director of Horticulture
DESCRIPTION:Love plants? So do we! And by this point in the summer there’s nothing we love more about plants than the delightfully refreshing shade they provide. Come take a walk in the garden with our Director of Horticulture (and Certified Tree Nut) Greg Paige as he waxes poetic\, philosophic and botanic about his favorite trees for providing respite from the scorching summer sun. \nGreg will highlight sprawling behemoths with shade enough for the whole city\, as well as smaller selections that fit modern gardens while still making spaces livable for people\, wildlife and plants. You will see beautiful trees\, feel the comfort they provide and experience the plant-love you can only find at the JCRA — you don’t want to miss this!

SUMMARY:Budding Explorers: "Butterfly Detectives"
DESCRIPTION:Calling all explorers! Join us for an exciting\, hands-on program where we will dive into the world of entomology to learn about and observe butterflies in the gardens! \nYouth participants\, accompanied by an adult\, will use their detective skills to discover the differences between butterflies and moths\, learn how to identify some common butterflies\, then head out into the garden to observe butterflies in their natural habitat. \nYou’ll also get an introduction to ecoEXPLORE\, an incentive-based community science program developed by The North Carolina Arboretum. By making real-world observations and completing fun challenges\, youth participants can earn badges and prizes throughout the year.
