Enjoy family activities in a wildlife-friendly garden tucked between the Insect Zoo and Lorikeet Landing, and learn how to cultivate native habitat in your own backyard with guidance from Oregon State University Extension Service Master Gardeners. Kids can dig in a worm bin and play games. Activity books and crayons are available, along with free publications that help you protect kids, pets, water and wildlife while growing a healthy and abundant yard. Free with zoo admission. Ride MAX to the Washington Park station, or park at the zoo for $4.
This summer's staffed exhibit activities happen from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, June through August. The exhibit is open for self-guided tours daily during zoo hours.
