Nature Journaling, Grades 3-5

Garden Science

• Thursday, September 14, 2023 – 1:00 pm–2:30 pm

Join us in the garden this fall for hands-on science in our living laboratory! Each week will feature a different topic for exploration and hands-on activities related to botany. We've designed this year's homeschool programs with families in mind!

This week's exploration:
Let's talk about why keeping a nature journal can be so fun and learn a few tips on how to do it! No artistic experience required.

Have a younger student? Join us for the Morning Garden Science class for kindergarten through second grade. Young students in kindergarten through second grade will meet in the Yurt from 11:00 am–12:15 pm to enjoy age-appropriate activities related to that week's topic.

Families are welcome to bring a picnic lunch to enjoy in the garden. If you have multiple ages of children participating, you can enjoy exploring the garden with siblings while you wait!
