For Ages 4 – 6
Children (and their favorite adult) are invited to dig in and help tend their very own garden plot in the new Edible Garden. Start with seeds and help them grow and thrive! Each gardening season is packed full of activities: planting, watering, grooming and harvesting produce. Learn what to plant each season and take the skills you learned in Tyler’s garden back to your own.
For the full experience, register for the entire series and see how your plants develop over the course of the season.
