Celebrating a Year in Bloom
Keep Tahoe Blue and The Tahoe Institute for Natural Sciences invite you to join us for an evening of connection, celebration, and wildflower joy at the 2025 Tahoe Wildflower Big Year Celebration. Whether you took part to document dozens of plants, cheered from the sidelines, or simply enjoy plants and the people who love them, this event is for you.
We’ll gather to celebrate the accomplishments of the Tahoe Wildflower Big Year community, reflect on a year of exploration and learning, and look ahead to future seasons of discovery. This mixer-style event is all about fun, conversation, and relationship building.
