South Jersey Firefly Festival

Fireflies are the fairies of summer nights. Viewing “nature’s light show” is part of the magic of living in New Jersey. Now a twilight festival will celebrate that magic. Explore the world of fireflies — and learn how you can help fireflies stay a part of our landscape for years to come.

Mad Hatter’s Tree Party

The Mad Hatter’s Tree Party is a celebration of autumn and trees — and a chance for families and people of all ages to share a whimsical adventure in a community forest. Learn about trees and the critical role that they play in a healthy environment. The Mad Hatter himself will be waiting for you at the end!

Bird Quest

Enjoy a springtime morning outdoors with family and friends, discovering the unique birds that live in and migrate through Gloucester County’s parks and natural areas. After, gather for lunch, prizes and a T-shirt! Whether you are a novice, seasoned birder, or somewhere in between, there are always surprises to be seen.
