Spring Break Alert
The Zoo anticipates high attendance through April, especially on sunny, warm days. For safety and guest experience, the Zoo may limit admission once parking reaches capacity. This will not only help with crowd management but will also provide a more relaxed and enjoyable visit for guests and their loved ones. Consider arriving early or carpooling, and check our site / social pages often for more updates!
At the Honey Bee Garden exhibit, you will see a living bee hive, get the inside scoop on bee colonies and see how plants, bees and people all work together to produce honey and so much more.
