ecoEXPLORE for Kids and Parents Valentines Day

Buncombe County -- Buncombe County Government: Looking to get your kids outside this winter?

Join us as we walk you through the web-based program, ecoEXPLORE.

In this free event, you’ll learn how to submit photos and complete nature-themed challenges to earn badges and prizes! This initiative by the NC Arboretum includes a different challenge each season that will keep children engaged in learning about nature year-round while also contributing to citizen science. The theme this winter is ornithology. We’ll explore Owen Park’s shores and woods for a variety of feathered friends! Stick around after the program to continue your exploration of the nature trails and playground.
