This is one trap you may not mind falling for.

The annual “Flytrap Frolic,” what organizers call a one-of-a-kind celebration of Venus flytraps and other carnivorous plants, is scheduled 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, June 7, at the Stanley Rehder Carnivorous Plant Garden, 3800 Canterbury Road, Wilmington.

The North Carolina Coastal Land Trust is hosting the family-friendly event that allows participants to get up close with meat-eating plants, learn about their adaptations, and why it’s important to protect their natural habitats.

The event will include carnivorous plant-themed games, arts and crafts, and face painters. Garden guides will be on hand to answer questions and help guests find carnivorous plants in the garden.

Ethically-sourced flytraps will be for sale to benefit the land trust on a first-come, first-served basis.

Anyone interested in volunteering to help at the event may sign up online.
