Woodlands Garden to Host 'Fairies in the Garden'

From Woodlands Garden:

It’s that time of year again, when magic returns to Woodlands Garden for the sixth year in a row. The fairies are coming to Woodlands on Saturday, Oct. 1 from 2-4:30 p.m. Once again, Woodlands will partner with Skyland Trail for its annual Fairies in the Garden event to celebrate art within nature. The event is free and open to the public. During the event, the Garden will host storytelling with Little Shop of Stories, hands-on crafts for all ages and the ever-popular Summoning of the Fairies parade.

Visitors will discover tiny fairy houses tucked throughout the Garden. The houses are created by Skyland Trail artists, using moss, bark, twigs, branches, seed heads, leaves and other natural materials. With hints provided by Woodlands, visitors can find fairies of all kinds — as well as trolls — tucked into sheltered nooks along the wooded trails. This free event was designed to help children of all ages recognize and appreciate the art that lies within nature.

Join us for an afternoon of hide and seek. Come prepared as this event will take place rain or shine. Don’t forget to wear your best fairy costume! The fall plant sale will be open during Fairies in the Garden for shopping. Special thanks to our friends at Skyland Trail for making this event a huge success.
