Celebrate springtime at the Gardens with wild
bird education and an egg hunt! Families will learn how to attract birds to
their home garden and create natural spring inspired crafts. Enjoy educational
activities led by the UT Gardens education staff, the Knoxville Chapter of the
Tennessee Ornithological Society and the UT Poultry Club. All kids will leave
with a beneficial insect hotel craft, a flower to transplant, a pine cone bird
nesting bundle, and a bird mobile.
This
year we are excited to offer eggs stuffed with wild flower seed paper confetti
as an environmentally friendly alternative to plastic toys or trinkets.
Children will also get a chance to win a prize or two. We ask that kids limit
themselves to finding 8 eggs so everyone has a fair chance to hunt. The Easter
Bunny will be hopping around for a selfie with your family.
In
partnership with the Food Allergy Community of East Tennessee (FACET), Allergy
and Asthma Affiliates, and Allergy Asthma and Sinus Center our annual Wild
Bird Eggstravaganza is food-free. This is a family friendly event and is
intended for children ages 12 and under. Bring your Easter basket and a camera!
Wild Bird Eggstravaganza is sponsored by Allergy & Asthma Affiliates, and
the Allergy, Asthma, & Sinus Center.
