Stop by our outdoor classroom on the Hickory Ridge Trail anytime between 1:00 and 3:00 to start the dyeing process. Stories will be read throughout the program and egg hunts will be held at 1:30 and 2:30. For best results plan to let your eggs soak in the dye bath for a minimum of one hour. Please bring your own pre-cooked eggs. The cost of this program is $8 per dozen eggs that you plan to dye. Come by yourself or bring the whole family!
