Celebrate the winter season by designing your own festive gingerbread bird seed house! Join us inside our warm nature center to learn all about our local backyard birds. Hear a short presentation on the how-to’s and benefits of birdwatching and gain a deeper appreciation for the purpose our feathered friends serve. After the presentation, we’ll spread the joy of the season to our backyard birds by making them bird-friendly gingerbread houses! You’ll be given a pre-made cardboard base built from recycled materials, then use sugar-free peanut butter, bird seed, dried berries, and other nutritious assorted treats to decorate. Put a bow on top by adding finishing touches using twine and cornmeal. Take your beautiful design home, place it outside, and enjoy the winter magic of backyard birds as they visit for a snack. Please register all members of your group (including children and adults) as supplies are limited. Groups/family units will be given one cardboard structure to work with. *Please note there are two of these programs happening, with one being adults only and the other open for families.
