Pollinator Family Festival

Description

Pollinators are the quiet heroes of every garden, meadow, and city park. This celebratory festival gives families a chance to learn about the bees, butterflies, and birds that make blooms possible.

Explore the meadows of Boston Nature Center, visit stations run by local partners, learn about native pollinator plants and insects, and even get a peek into the world of beekeeping. Create art, take guided tours, and discover how everyday choices—from the plants we grow to the products we buy—can make a real difference for bees, butterflies, and the ecosystems they support.
