Adkins Arboretum has a full calendar of events and activities related to native plants and their habitats. Please see their website for details.
Adkins Arboretum is a 400-acre native garden and preserve in Caroline County on Maryland's Eastern Shore, dedicated to promoting the appreciation and conservation of the region's native plants. Five miles of paths along streams, through meadows and native plant gardens, and under the shade of a rich bottomland forest attract nature lovers, gardeners, students and birders. The Arboretum offers programs year-round in ecology, horticulture, and natural history for all ages. The site features over 600 species of native shrubs, trees, wildflowers, and grasses.
