The Bartlett needs your help! We need a team of Park Rangers to protect the 7 distinct habitats on our grounds. If you’re up for the job, you will help us explore and protect our forest, wetlands, gardens, and meadow! Get immersed in nature in this completely ‘unplugged’ week all about protecting the world we live in!

· Explore the 7 different habitats at the Bartlett and discover how to keep them healthy.

· Earn a different badge each day we protect a different habitat

· Check on the frogs in our pond and play with the butterflies in our gardens

· Become a true environment steward!

 

Spend summer at the Bartlett Arboretum!  We offer environmental programs that offer a unique transformational journey to help youth discover the natural "unplugged" world around them. Our programs are hands-on, incorporating STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and math) as we investigate the Bartlett’s extraordinary 93-acre campus. We balance open-ended nature exploration with Next Generation Science Standards’ aligned activities that build explorers’ skills and knowledge.

Join us for 2018 Summer Immersion Experiences. Program dates: June 25 - August 17. This year we are excited to announce eight unplugged and unparalleled weeks! Discover a new theme each week, which is tied to the plants and animals that live at the Arboretum.  We’ll roam the Bartlett’s grounds from swamp to forest to greenhouse.  Along the way we will create art, complete hands-on investigations indoors and out, have lots of time to play, and enjoy nature together!

Complete nature immersion experiences for youth from June 25 - August 17.
