Eloise Butler Wildfower Garden Tour (Marcy 55+)


Lifelong Learning 55+ / Adventures in Learning -
Lifelong Learning 55+ Spring 2026

Come for a wildflower-filled walk! In April and May, when the trees have yet to leaf out and more sunshine is available, many woodland wildflowers carpet the forest floor, including some of the spring ephemerals native to our region. The Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden and Bird Sanctuary is one of the premier locations in the Twin Cities metro area to see these beauties. You will learn about characteristics of the various species in bloom as you spend an hour strolling the trails with a Garden Naturalist. Meet at the Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden parking lot. Programs are led by knowledgeable garden naturalists who have a variety of backgrounds in the natural sciences and environmental education fields.

Co-sponsored by Minneapolis Community Education and Southeast Seniors.

Note: Community Education uses a sliding scale model for program fees so our programs can be financially sustainable and more equitable. Participants are asked to pick the price that they can pay. By more clearly articulating our lower cost options, we have removed the barrier that some may have felt in making scholarship requests. When participants sign up at the higher price levels, they help make the program more sustainable

Refund Policy

Refunds (minus a $5 transaction fee) are given if you call or email at least three business days before a class begins. Full refunds will be given for any class that needs to be canceled by the site.
