The Caterpillar Crawl Tour

Join an up-close exploration of caterpillars and their crucial role in our natural world. This guided program takes you behind the scenes to learn how to spot common caterpillar species and understand the special bond between these insects and the plants they depend on. You'll observe caterpillars directly within the exhibit space, getting an intimate look at creatures that are far more than just butterfly-in-waiting. Every participant walks away with a native host plant to bring home, giving you a practical way to start supporting butterfly populations in your own yard. The tour runs for about 30 minutes. Admission pricing varies: members pay $17, while non-members pay $20 (plus separate garden admission). Registration is required to secure your spot.
