We're celebrating TACO week this year with an "Unlocking the Arboretum" scavenger hunt! Participate in this self-guided scavenger hunt by scanning QR Codes throughout the Arboretum.
Start at the Visitor Center, where you 'll find the first QR code and instructions to begin your journey. Follow the clues to discover hidden gems across our gardens and learn something new along the way. By successfully completing the hunt and "unlocking" the Arboretum, you can earn a small prize; our way of celebrating your effort to connect with the Arboretum and spend time outside. Make it a group thing and invite friends to meet you for your adventure! Pack a snack or picnic lunch and be sure to bring your water bottle. There is no cost for the activity, but please consider a donation to help support this program and others like them for everyone to enjoy. Contributions will support the JC Raulston Arboretum Children's Program. A donation box will be set up to collect what you're able to contribute.
