Cox Arboretum Storytime

Storytime in the Gardens: Millie Fleur’s Poison Garden 🌿📖☕

Join us for a magical afternoon in the gardens as we step into the enchanting world of Millie Fleur’s Poison Garden. We’ll gather for storytime among the trees, followed by tea, light snacks, and a fascinating presentation on the real-life poisonous plants that grow in our collection. We will also have hayrides available!

This family-friendly event blends storytelling, nature, and education—perfect for plant lovers, curious minds, and anyone who enjoys a touch of garden mystery.

Come sip tea, enjoy the gardens, and discover the secrets of plants that are as beautiful as they are dangerous.

Info: We will be reading Millie Fleur's Poison Garden by Christy Mandin. Storytime will start at 12pm and go for 30-45 mins.

Info: Following storytime, tea and snacks will be served for anyone who wants to participate.

Info: By 1:15pm we will start our presentation on poisonous plants that are in the gardens! Everyone will get a chance to learn and see poisonous plants that we have right here in our gardens. As our event comes to an end we will be handing out coloring sheets for each child to take home and enjoy!

Info: Before the event ends we will have a hayride around the garden!
