MBG Winter Walks are designed for all ages to inspire curiosity and learning from each other through activities that model curiosity and honor nature.

Matthaei Botanical Gardens’ Winter Walks are held most Wednesdays and Sundays through April. These free, guided walks will take place inside the Conservatory (though if the weather is particularly wonderful, we may move outside – watch this page for updates). MBG Winter Walks are designed for all ages to inspire curiosity and learning from each other through activities that model curiosity and honor nature.

April showers bring May flowers, but it also brings the return of many of our feathered friends and the insects many birds depend on. Take a hike to learn why so many birds love Matthaei and what they are looking for when they visit, learn what native plants you might grow to attract birds and make a simple bird feeder to attract birds to your yard. Bring binoculars if you have them, we will have several youth binocs to share.

Recommended for all ages

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: University of Michigan Press

Are you interested in the efforts to restore and protect the Rouge River watershed? Join us for a Q&A discussion with John H. Hartig and Jim Graham, editors of the recent book "Rouge River Revived: How People Are Bringing Their River Back to Life" on Monday, April 24. After pollution from the Ford complex and neighboring factories literally caused the river to catch on fire in 1969, community groups launched a Herculean effort to restore and protect the watershed. Today the Rouge stands as one of the most successful examples of urban river revival in the country.

This event will take place in Facebook Live and Zoom webinar. The recording will be shared afterwards.

About the Authors:
John H. Hartig serves as a Visiting Scholar at the University of Windsor’s Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research, as the Great Lakes Science-Policy Advisor to the International Association for Great Lakes Research, and as a member of the Board of Directors of the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy.

Jim Graham is an award-winning journalist for the Detroit News and the former Executive Director of Friends of the Rouge.

Winter Walks (April 30, 2023 1:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/105986 105986-21813363@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Sunday, April 30, 2023 1:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Matthaei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum

Matthaei Botanical Gardens is hosting free guided nature walks on select Wednesdays and Sundays. These walks are FREE, no registration is required.

Matthaei Botanical Gardens’ Winter Walks are held most Wednesdays and Sundays through April. These free, guided walks will take place inside the Conservatory (though if the weather is particularly wonderful, we may move outside – watch this page for updates). MBG Winter Walks are designed for all ages to inspire curiosity and learning from each other through activities that model curiosity and honor nature. If we have a sizeable mixed-age group, we may separate into two sets to offer the same content at different levels of engagement.

Wednesday walks begin at 5:30 pm. Sunday walks begin at 1:00 pm. We recommend gathering inside the lobby of Matthaei Botanical Gardens about 10 minutes before the start.

There’s more to bees than honey (July 29, 2023 10:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/113189 113189-21830369@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Saturday, July 29, 2023 10:00am

What are native bees?
Native bees are diverse.
Native bees are large.
Native bees are small, Native bees are metallic.
Native bees wear masks. Native bees are specialists.
Native bees are super pollinators.
When we talk about supporting bees, many people naturally think of honey bees. Honey bees can help pollinate crops, especially on farms where there might not be enough native pollinators around. Plus, they are the only bees that produce honey, so you can thank them for that delicious treat. However, when we consider bees’ impacts to society and the environment, it’s essential to consider their natural history.
Honey bees were introduced to the Americas from Eurasia and Africa by humans, which means they haven’t co-evolved with our native plants and animals. Since honey bees have not been a part of Michigan’s ecosystems until relatively recently, their impacts on Michigan’s ecosystems and native plant communities are not as large as their agricultural value. While honey bees are thriving in managed hives, it’s not the same story for our native bee species.
These wonderful creatures are facing challenges due to habitat loss, as their natural homes and food sources are being replaced by agricultural fields, urban areas, and non-native plants. It’s essential to give some attention to our often-overlooked native bees. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and you might not even recognize them as bees at first glance!
This exhibit aims to raise awareness about Michigan’s native bees, their appearance, behavior, and interactions with plants. By understanding and appreciating them better, we hope to inspire everyone to think about how we can support and protect these vital pollinators too.

What are native bees?
Native bees are diverse.
Native bees are large.
Native bees are small, Native bees are metallic.
Native bees wear masks. Native bees are specialists.
Native bees are super pollinators.
When we talk about supporting bees, many people naturally think of honey bees. Honey bees can help pollinate crops, especially on farms where there might not be enough native pollinators around. Plus, they are the only bees that produce honey, so you can thank them for that delicious treat. However, when we consider bees’ impacts to society and the environment, it’s essential to consider their natural history.
Honey bees were introduced to the Americas from Eurasia and Africa by humans, which means they haven’t co-evolved with our native plants and animals. Since honey bees have not been a part of Michigan’s ecosystems until relatively recently, their impacts on Michigan’s ecosystems and native plant communities are not as large as their agricultural value. While honey bees are thriving in managed hives, it’s not the same story for our native bee species.
These wonderful creatures are facing challenges due to habitat loss, as their natural homes and food sources are being replaced by agricultural fields, urban areas, and non-native plants. It’s essential to give some attention to our often-overlooked native bees. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and you might not even recognize them as bees at first glance!
This exhibit aims to raise awareness about Michigan’s native bees, their appearance, behavior, and interactions with plants. By understanding and appreciating them better, we hope to inspire everyone to think about how we can support and protect these vital pollinators too.

While honey bees are thriving in managed hives, it’s not the same story for our native bee species.
These wonderful creatures are facing challenges due to habitat loss, as their natural homes and food sources are being replaced by agricultural fields, urban areas, and non-native plants. It’s essential to give some attention to our often-overlooked native bees. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and you might not even recognize them as bees at first glance!
This exhibit aims to raise awareness about Michigan’s native bees, their appearance, behavior, and interactions with plants. By understanding and appreciating them better, we hope to inspire everyone to think about how we can support and protect these vital pollinators too.

What are native bees?
Native bees are diverse.
Native bees are large.
Native bees are small, Native bees are metallic.
Native bees wear masks. Native bees are specialists.
Native bees are super pollinators.
When we talk about supporting bees, many people naturally think of honey bees. Honey bees can help pollinate crops, especially on farms where there might not be enough native pollinators around. Plus, they are the only bees that produce honey, so you can thank them for that delicious treat. However, when we consider bees’ impacts to society and the environment, it’s essential to consider their natural history.

What are native bees?
Native bees are diverse.
Native bees are large.
Native bees are small, Native bees are metallic.
Native bees wear masks. Native bees are specialists.
Native bees are super pollinators.
When we talk about supporting bees, many people naturally think of honey bees. Honey bees can help pollinate crops, especially on farms where there might not be enough native pollinators around. Plus, they are the only bees that produce honey, so you can thank them for that delicious treat. However, when we consider bees’ impacts to society and the environment, it’s essential to consider their natural history.
Honey bees were introduced to the Americas from Eurasia and Africa by humans, which means they haven’t co-evolved with our native plants and animals. Since honey bees have not been a part of Michigan’s ecosystems until relatively recently, their impacts on Michigan’s ecosystems and native plant communities are not as large as their agricultural value. While honey bees are thriving in managed hives, it’s not the same story for our native bee species.
These wonderful creatures are facing challenges due to habitat loss, as their natural homes and food sources are being replaced by agricultural fields, urban areas, and non-native plants. It’s essential to give some attention to our often-overlooked native bees. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and you might not even recognize them as bees at first glance!
This exhibit aims to raise awareness about Michigan’s native bees, their appearance, behavior, and interactions with plants. By understanding and appreciating them better, we hope to inspire everyone to think about how we can support and protect these vital pollinators too.

Since honey bees have not been a part of Michigan’s ecosystems until relatively recently, their impacts on Michigan’s ecosystems and native plant communities are not as large as their agricultural value. While honey bees are thriving in managed hives, it’s not the same story for our native bee species.
These wonderful creatures are facing challenges due to habitat loss, as their natural homes and food sources are being replaced by agricultural fields, urban areas, and non-native plants. It’s essential to give some attention to our often-overlooked native bees. They come in many different shapes and sizes, and you might not even recognize them as bees at first glance!
This exhibit aims to raise awareness about Michigan’s native bees, their appearance, behavior, and interactions with plants. By understanding and appreciating them better, we hope to inspire everyone to think about how we can support and protect these vital pollinators too.
