Story Time at NJ Audubon Scherman Hoffman
New Jersey Audubon's Scherman Hoffman Wildlife Sanctuary 11 Hardscrabble Road, Bernardsville, NJ, United StatesJoin us for a walk to our frog pond and a reading of "The Puddle Garden." Meet at the Nature Store at 11am for a short walk to the frog pond where David Pasake, NJA Volunteer and retired Wantage Elementary School teacher, will read "The Puddle Garden", written by Jared Rosenbaum, owner of Wild Ridge Plant nursery. Learn how Bear Cub invites friends to his new home by creating a Puddle Garden. A puddle garden is both beautiful and beneficial to other wildlife species. Children and parents alike will be inspired by this story to create homes for butterflies, hummingbirds, turtles, frogs and other wildlife, using native wildflowers and shrubs that provide shelter and sustenance. Hopefully our pond will have some frogs and eggs that everyone can see and hear. If the weather is uncooperative, the book will be read inside the Nature Store. FREE! Interested in becoming a member?
