Family Photo Scavenger: Blossoms & Butterflies
June is peak butterfly season, and what better place to spot these incredible insects than an arboretum? Bring your family and see all the colors a butterfly can be — and the flowers that support them. Finish the scavenger hunt and get a prize.
June is peak butterfly season, and Frelinghuysen Arboretum is leaning all the way into it. This self-guided photo scavenger hunt runs daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. through at least June 9, so you’ve got plenty of chances to drag the kids away from a screen and into the garden. The premise is exactly what it sounds like: find the butterflies, photograph the blooms, complete the hunt, and collect a prize. Bring a phone with a working camera, a kid with functioning legs, and a willingness to lose an hour identifying whether that’s a monarch or a fritillary. Check the Morris County Parks listing for registration details and anything we may have missed.
