Pitt County's Master Gardeners welcome you to HiBEARnating!, the new winter exhibit in the Children's Garden. Learn how annuals, perennials, and insects 'sleep' among the dried leaves and dead stems of winter. Check out the bulb containers waiting for warmer weather to 'spring' to life. Play the 'sleeping bear' game where you hunt for hidden images of hibernating bears. And take a book or two from the Little Free Library in the center of the garden. Come visit, and be sure to get a brochure from the 'mailbox' at the garden’s entrance. |
