Fairy Day in the Daniel Boone Native Gardens is back Saturday July 8, 2023 from 1-5pm. This annual event is $2 for adults, and free for children and those dressed in fairy/elf attire, and is the Gardens’ largest annual fundraiser. New this year, a costume contest will be held at 2pm for the best dressed fairy and elf/woodland creature, with portraits by Bill Barber for the winners. And, with the winners’ permission, the portraits may also be used for some of next year’s Fairy Day promotional materials.<br/><br/>The Watauga County Library, Watauga County Arts Council, The Children’s Playhouse, and the Blue Ridge chapter of NC Native Plant Society will be stationed in the gardens providing hands-on activities. Create lasting memories with a photo op with Ayla the Dreams Fairy as well as Fairy Brucie Abella while you stroll through the gardens to music by Mary Greene/others, or find a new perspective with intuitive guide, Catherine Walters. <br/><br/>Enh
