Be part of a global event with your friends at the Gardens! Mark your calendars for the Great Backyard Bird Count February 16-17.

Bring your binoculars, or use theirs if you don’t have any, and Smith-Gilbert Gardens will be ready with tour guides, identification sheets, and instructions on how to enter your data as a citizen scientist. A great a event for the whole family.

Tour guides will be available on Saturday only between 9:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m., every hour at the mid-hour. The last guided tour begins at 12:30 p.m.

Free with Garden admission.
