About this Event

We love all things green at The Beaney. You can find plant life in paintings, objects, and even fossils. But real plants have started popping up throughout the building! A trail of notes has revealed a mischievous scheme! Our newest staff member, Herb McLeaf, has been secretly sowing seeds, aiming to make The Beaney bloom like never before.

Help us before the museum becomes a jungle!

  • Solve interactive puzzles around the building
  • Explore the museum collection
  • Collect stamps to fill your greenhouse
  • Finish the trail to collect a tasty treat
