Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a hotspot for biodiversity, and spring is a wonderful time to experience it! Examine wildflowers, search for elk, look for signs of the changing seasons, and discover what’s hiding just below the surface of the forest floor. Participate in ongoing research projects in the park, and bring home ideas and activities to teach about our interdependence with the natural world.
