Calendar

From the cereal you eat for breakfast to the peanut butter and jelly sandwich you had for lunch to the chocolate cake you ate for dessert – just about everything we eat comes from plants.

Celebrate the start of summer as we have fun with the sun’s rays on the longest day of the year. Discover the science of the solstice, explore the power of the sun, and investigate the life cycle of sunflowers.

Discover what lives in and around a pond as we investigate water samples with magnifiers and microscopes, build like beavers and make art with fish.

Join us as we take a closer look at the curious world of carnivorous plants. Discover the unique adaptations of these amazing plants, investigate the insects that help them survive, and explore the soggy soil they live in.

Gather around the campfire as we celebrate the end of summer. Make s’mores, discover the world of owls, and become a garden sleuth as you search for signs of fall in the Garden.
