Lupine Fest Passport Details

HOW IT WORKS
Get ready to explore, discover, and celebrate all month long with the Lupine Fest Passport Adventure! Pick up your passport and set off on a journey through the Albany Pine Bush Preserve and beyond.

 

Attend Lupine Fest programs, hikes, exhibits, and special events throughout May, and collect a stamp in your passport for each activity you complete. Every stamp marks a new exploration—whether you’re experiencing wildlife, creating art, joining a guided hike, or becoming a community scientist.

Along the way, you’ll earn fun, small prizes just for participating!

The more you explore, the more surprises you can collect. There’s no pressure—just plenty of opportunities to jump in, try something new, and enjoy the beauty of the Pine Bush.

Bring your friends, bring your family, and see how many stamps you can collect by the end of the month. Every stamp tells the story of your Lupine Fest adventure!

🌼 Start your journey. Collect your stamps. Celebrate spring.
