Nature’s Treasure Map

In celebration of Take a Child Outside Week you can explore the Fort Missoula Native Plant Garden during a special Saturday Kids’ Activity.

Practice the art of reading and making maps as you follow signs to natural treasures- special burrows, exciting scat!, buried bones, animal tracks, and much more. When you have completed your quest you can make your own map for the rest of your family to follow. We will have plenty of materials to help you create a beautiful work of art. Add creative touches like a yellow patina for age or watercolors for vibrant depictions of plants and birds.

The Native Plant Garden at Fort Missoula was designed with kids in mind. Bring a picnic and spend some time here this Saturday.

Meet at the Fort Missoula Native Plant Garden, near the water tower at the Fort.
