Join us for the **Butterfly Bungalow Tour: Host Plants + Caterpillars** on Friday, June 26, from 3:00 to 3:30 p.m. for $10 (General Garden Admission or Membership required). Limited to 20 participants, this exclusive guided tour is part of our Pollinator Week Programming and will be led by Butterfly Exhibit Specialist Candace Duncan. Discover the often-overlooked world of caterpillars and the essential role of host plants in the butterfly life cycle. Participants will learn how butterflies select host plants, the challenges caterpillars face in the wild, and various threats to their survival. Candace will also share practical tips on growing host plants at home while ensuring a safe habitat for caterpillars and butterflies. The Butterfly Bungalow will be closed to the public during this intimate learning experience, and each participant will receive a host plant from Stowe’s Native Nursery to support local pollinators. This unique tour offers butterfly enthusiasts, gardeners, and curious individuals a chance to explore the vital connections that sustain butterfly populations. Register now to secure your spot!
