“We usually have somewhere between 5,000 and 6,000 people that visit us on that single day,” said Dr. Michael Womack, executive director for the South Texas Botanical Garden and Nature Center. “They get to see a little bit about what we’re doing and they’ll hopefully go back in the community, talk to their friends about it, or come back and visit us at other times during the year.”
