Join acclaimed children's author Susan Edwards Richmond at SpringFest for a special storytime featuring Susan’s new book, The Great Pollinator Count. Following a fun and engaging read-aloud, attendees will learn more about how pollination works—and then head out to the gardens to search for pollinators in action. Storytime will run from 11:45 a.m. to 12:45 p.m.

Books will be available for purchase through the Garden Shop.
