Details for our 2025 Pollinator Promenade are coming!

This NEW event is to celebrate our local pollinators and highlight all the things they do every day that we rely on. The event features a series of fun “run” events (running isn’t actually allowed) that circle around our newly planted prairie: a pollinator-themed costume contest, a speed walking race, and a scavenger hunt. It will also feature booths by local businesses selling products related to pollinators, as well as local organizations involved with conservation and education. There will be lots of kids activities and games, and a food vendors.

This year, Pollinator Promenade will take place on Saturday, July 12 from 10 AM – 1 PM here at the Elkhart Environmental Center. The event is free and open to the public! If you’d like to register for a fun “run” event or buy a t-shirt, check out the links below.
