Babies and up to age 2 are still admitted free. For more information, call (260) 427-6440.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>$1 Night Insight: Flower Pounding<\/strong><br \/>\nThursday, March 3, 5:30 &#8211; 7:30 pm<br \/>\nIf you have never tried your hand at flower pounding &#8211; transferring the colorful pigments of flowers onto paper or cloth to use in crafts or art projects &#8211; this is your chance. Mallet on wood can be a little noisy but you&#8217;ll find the activity a stress reliever, too! And you will walk away with a sample of natural color to brighten your late winter days. It&#8217;s a simple but fascinating process with an added benefit; when you start to collect and pound flowers on your own you begin to know them by both name and color quality. Master Gardener Kay Musgrave will have the flowers and tools needed. No registration required, so you can drop in on $1 Night, and bring a friend. You can explore the botanical gardens afterwards. Held at the Botanical Conservatory, 1100 S. Calhoun St. All ages. $1 per person.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conservatory New Volunteer Orientation<\/strong><br \/>\nWednesday, March 8, 1 &#8211; 4 pm<br \/>\nThe Botanical Conservatory is inviting new volunteers to join their support team in a variety of positions. Come discover where you might fit in! Volunteer opportunities include butterfly attendants, admission or gift shop cashiers, garden or greenhouse helpers, special event helpers and plant sale support. Staff and volunteers will offer an overview of the volunteer program and its benefits, answer questions, and give facility tours as you enjoy light refreshments. Personal follow-up and training for positions is provided. Please let us know you&#8217;re coming! To save a spot or for more information, contact Rebecca at (260) 427-6442 or Rebecca.Canales@CityofFortWayne.org. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Butterfly Volunteers Needed at the Conservatory<\/strong><br \/>\nTraining in March to help April &#8211; July<br \/>\nDo you enjoy butterflies? As the Conservatory prepares for its 14th year of live butterflies, the staff is looking for volunteers willing to monitor the entrance and exit vestibules of the new exhibit. Butterfly Attendants assist visitors with exhibit protocols and in preventing butterfly escapes, while helping to make the guests&#8217; experience positive. Volunteers can choose among 2- or 3-hour shifts Tuesdays through Sundays. Training required; multiple class dates are available. Register for training with volunteer supervisor Rebecca Canales by calling (260) 427-6442 or by email at Rebecca.Canales@CityofFortWayne.org.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Painted Lady Hatch &amp; Release<\/strong><br \/>\nSaturday, March 12, 11 am-12 pm<br \/>\nThe beauty of butterflies isn&#8217;t instant; the lifecycle is a process of four stages: egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, and butterfly. Purchase a Painted Lady caterpillar and hatching kit at the Conservatory Gift Shop in March, then build and decorate your own caterpillar hatchery. Once your caterpillar changes into a butterfly you can celebrate its flight by releasing it into the Conservatory&#8217;s Tropical Garden. For more information, call (260) 427-6445.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Winter-Sowing<\/strong><br \/>\nSaturday, March 19, 9:30 &#8211; 11 am<br \/>\nSpring is right around the corner, but there&#8217;s still time for &#8220;winter-sowing,&#8221; a technique that helps certain flower seeds grow successfully. Some hardy annuals and perennial flowers need a cold treatment called stratification. Master Gardeners Anita Crusoe and Amanda Weimer will bring a PowerPoint to help you understand the basics then teach you how to build a mini greenhouse from recyclables to put it into action. By the end of class you&#8217;ll be ready, with seeds and handouts, to try it at home. Please bring a clean, clear 2-liter bottle to class; all other supplies will be provided. Ages 8+.

Why do people dig? What do they look for? Try out your digging- and-finding skills with different tools and media. Will you find dinosaur bones?

In March, orchid flowers are among the most beautiful &#8211; and intriguing &#8211; in nature. Most people admire orchids, yet few dare to grow them. At our learning station you&#8217;ll see different types of orchids in bloom, learn the basics of orchid care, hear about our orchid rescue program, and explore a simple vocabulary of symmetry and epiphytes. This drop-in program is included in your regular Conservatory admission fee; free for Conservatory members and volunteers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Discovery Corner: Spring Weather<\/strong><br \/>\nDaily in the Discovery Gallery<br \/>\nOur youngest visitors are always welcome to visit the Discovery Corner behind Woody the Talking Tree where they&#8217;ll find stories and activities relating to a monthly theme.
