Explore the inspiring beauty of plants and nurture your child’s love for nature by joining the Garden Explorers program at the Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens!

Garden Explorers will enjoy hands-on learning from our seasoned educators and get behind-the-scenes looks at our amazing plant collections housed in the historic Lord and Burnham Conservatory.Week 2: Bees, Bats, and Butterflies | July 13 – 17, 2026 | 9am–12pm
Perplexed by pollinating critters? Look no further than this week of engaging environmental science! Participants will get to experience live presentations of bees at our in-house apiary, look for birds on our South Park Loop, and meet monarchs within the Garden’s Butterfly Experience. By the end of the week, participants will leave with an expanded knowledge of pollinators and how to care for them. Each day, participants will make, plant, or create a botanically relevant item to bring home.
Garden Explorers Summer Camp is designed for children ages 10-14. Learn more about our other camp weeks, as well as our camp policies, on our main Summer Camp page.
