It's not just the bees that are buzzing during the summer months at BBG. Everywhere you turn you'll find activity during all times of the day: children running around at camp, visitors on our daily tours, students engaged in classes, community members doing sunset yoga on the lawn, painting students set up with their easels, and many more. There's something for everyone. Whether you're visiting for a day or the whole summer, learning opportunities abound here at BBG.
