Poppy is Headed Back For a Fourth Year of Elf in the Garden

It’s almost time for the Garden’s favorite holiday tradition! Poppy has left the North Pole and has begun their journey to return to the Garden for a FOURTH year! Starting Wednesday, November 22, you’ll find Poppy “hiding” in different areas of the Garden, moving locations every Wednesday morning until Christmas Day. How will Poppy get along with Thomas Dambo’s Trolls? We’ll have to wait and see!

We’ll provide tips each week on our social channels as to where the latest location is within our 87 acres, so be sure to follow us on Instagram if you don’t already. Please note that Poppy is going to be really busy enjoying Astra Lumina during the evenings, so this is a daytime-only activity.

This year, we are excited to be offering a more substantial prize to those who visit Poppy each week. Take a picture with Poppy at each location and post it on Instagram, tagging @scbgarden and using the #ElfintheGarden hashtag, to be entered to win $300! We know everyone can use a little extra cash during the holidays, so we hope this will help the winner!
