Take your nature journaling in a new direction this year with a Calendar of Firsts!

open journal with flower petals and books

Together we'll create a simple, undated diary you can use to record your observations through 52 weeks of the year–from the first bloom in your garden to the first snowfall. Making brief notes of what's happening around you outside not only triggers positive memories, it promotes a deeper understanding of the natural world.

 

Garden Science is a series of programs for students to dive deeper into a garden topic. Each week's program is a stand alone program, but it's more fun to come to all of them! Meet new friends and spend some time in the garden learning.

Join us for other Garden Science programs this winter!
