Event information

A family activity session to learn about honeybees and bumblebees. Meet one of our beekeepers to find out about life in the hive, play pollination games, and learn more about how bees help us and what we can do to help them. You can also make a \'wildflower bomb\' to take home so you can grow your own wildflowers to attract bees and other pollinating insects.

Summer\'s here - come and join family activity sessions - ideal for finding out more about the wildlife at Martineau Gardens, the community garden in Edgbaston, near Birmingham. There will be plenty of fun and play along the way. This is one of 8 \'Family Fun Friday\' sessions taking place during the summer holidays. Sessions are led by Juliette Green, Martineau Gardens\' Education Officer.

Here\'s what you need to know:
This is a family learning event —activities are for supervised children aged 3—12 years. Parents/carers are expected to stay and join in but don’t pay, children\'s tickets are £5 per head. Numbers are limited to 20 children per session - book in advance to avoid disappointment.

The activity runs from 10.00 - 12.00. There will be an identical session from 1.30 - 3.30, so just choose one of the sessions.

Dress appropriately for the weather, since the session will take place outside.

Bring a drink and a snack, or bring your packed lunch if you’d like to have a picnic at Martineau Gardens.
Martineau Gardens serves hot and cold drinks (for which donations are welcomed) but not food.

Parking is limited, so we suggest you come by public transport - we are on the 1, X61 and 63 bus routes.
