Just one adult toad can eat over 10,000 pesky insects in a single summer! In this program, Conservatory staff and volunteers will help you build your own starter home for your new amphibious acquaintances out of an old clay flowerpot. You can then decorate it with supplies we have on hand, or you can bring your own shells, stones or other small items to make it uniquely your own. Free coffee and tea. No reservations needed.
