Have you got an “in” with fairies? A little magical pixie dust in your fingertips?


The Sawtooth Botanical Garden is inviting Fairy Friends to create nature-made fairy homes for its magical Fairy Trail.


The fairy houses will be displayed along the creek that runs through the garden, in the lava beds and at other sites to entice children and adults alike to look for them as they walk the Fairy Trail.


The houses should be made out of natural materials, such as leaves, grass, moss, twigs, flowers, acorns, rock, pinecones, seashells and feathers.


Large wood pieces, stone or clay can serve as a foundation.


Fairy Houses may be dropped off at the garden from Tuesday through Thursday, May 26—23. The grand opening of the Fairy Trail will be held Saturday, May 30.
