Come participate in the JCRA's first ecoEXPLORE program of the year and let us help you complete your badge requirements!

bird in the garden

We'll learn all about birds in the garden—what attracts them, how to keep them (or deter them) and how to thoroughly enjoy them. We will also spend time in the garden as a group watching birds, identifying them, counting them and then submitting our observations to the Great Backyard Bird Count to help scientists better understand and protect birds around the 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!
