Look closely and learn about science experiments to try at home. This program is drop-in, so guests may come and go as they please! This program is designed for our youngest learners (0-5) but is suitable for all ages.

Young Sprouts: Starting Seeds – Germination Station

Visit our Young Sprouts Germination Station! Are you curious about seeds? What is a seed, anyway? What do seeds need to grow into healthy plants? Investigate the many colors, shapes, and sizes of seeds and listen to the story, A Seed is Sleepy. We will also be giving away seeds saved from our garden!

This program is drop-in, so feel free to come and go as you please! This program is designed for our youngest learners (0-5) but suitable for all ages. Program location is weather dependent: we will be in the Garden if the weather allows; find us in the Nursery if weather is less than ideal.
