The Flutter Run

Run, flutter or walk with us! Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens is thrilled to host our third annual 5k, raising funds to support the Conservatory’s mission to connect people to nature and create life-enhancing experiences. By participating in our 5k, you’re not only embarking on a scenic journey through the beautiful Franklin Park but also contributing to impactful efforts that sustain our mission. Join us this summer to learn more about pollinators and celebrate nature and community at Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens! Let’s run, flutter, or walk for a cause and pave the way for a greener, more connected future. 

Your participation in the Flutter Run supports programs like these: 

• The Farmers Market increases access to fresh, locally grown food to the Near East Side community. 

• Nature School provides children ages 3-5 with hands-on, meaningful opportunities to explore the world around them. 

• Outreach Programs that bring nature-based education and resources out into the community.
