Come to the Free Party for the Planet on May 2nd!
(Madison, WI): Spring is the perfect time to celebrate the planet, and there’s no better place to do it than at the Zoo. Families are invited to attend the annual Party for the Planet event on Saturday, May 2nd from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. for a day filled with outdoor fun, hands-on learning, and activities for all ages at the Henry Vilas Zoo.
A returning favorite is the popular tree climbing experience, made possible by the Dane County Regional Arborists Group. With the help of trained volunteers, children can safely climb into some of the Zoo’s mature oak trees and experience nature from a whole new perspective. Wheelchair-accessible harnesses will also be available, helping ensure that more kids can participate in this unique activity.
Guests can also take home a piece of the celebration. American Hazelnut and Sycamore saplings will be available for giveaway while supplies last, offering families an easy and meaningful way to make a positive environmental impact right at home.
Throughout the event, attendees will have opportunities to learn how everyday actions can make a difference for the planet. From simple conservation tips to engaging educational experiences, the day is designed to inspire visitors of all ages.
This annual celebration is a great way for the community to come together, enjoy the outdoors, and take part in caring for the Earth. 🌎🌿
The event is FREE and open to the public.
