Green Thumb Gardeners

Meet the Garden

• Wednesday, February 12, 2020 – 12:30 pm–2:00 pm

Are you looking for a fun and interactive way for your student to learn more about gardening? Then our new gardening workshop, "Green Thumb Gardeners" is for you!

Weekly classes are held on Wednesdays from 12:30 pm–2:00 pm. Pack a lunch to eat during the first thirty minutes with your friends in the garden. After lunch, we'll have gardening lessons and activities.

This introductory, "Meet the Garden" session is free so you can try out the class. If your child enjoys their time, sign up for the remaining three class series!

We will be conducting experiments, learning about garden pests, building garden structures, and making some tasty treats right from the garden! We hope that you'll join us.
