Awakening Woods - free family event

Join us as the arboretum bursts into spring. 

Pick up a collecting bag from the Welcome Building and gather fallen petals and spring treasures as you make your way to the Learning Centre.  

Use our microscopes to see inside a flower bud, discover how bracken unfurls and try our quiz to win a sweet or fruit reward. 

Design a spring window with natural objects, make tissue primroses, felt magnolias and create pompom chicks.

Suitable for children aged 3+
