About this Event

Storytime in the Gardens: Dragons Love Tacos 🌮🐉📚


Get ready for a lively afternoon in the gardens as we read the hilarious children’s favorite Dragons Love Tacos by Adam Rubin, illustrated by Daniel Salmieri. After storytime, we’ll enjoy snack time together and explore the plants from Mexico growing in our gardens—including those often used to make salsa! We will also have hayrides available to go around the gardens!


This family-friendly event is the perfect mix of laughter, learning, and delicious fun. Come for the story, stay for the snacks, and discover how plants connect to the foods we love.
