The weather is certainly spring-like in Billings this weekend, with some warmer temperatures, some cooler temperatures, and a little rain mixed in. That’s okay! It’s getting to be spring nonetheless, which means gardening! If you are like us, you may be learning about gardening. We are super excited about the native plant symposium at the Songbird Community Garden this weekend. What a great opportunity to learn about Montana’s native plants.

Springtime is a wonderful time to bird watch, so be sure to take a trip to the Montana Audubon Center. It’s always fun to visit the center down by the river. Take a stroll along the Yellowstone and just enjoy the fresh air.

There are plenty of fun events this weekend to satisfy your interests. Do you have an event coming up that you’d like us to feature? Email details to Cari at [email protected].
