For our littlest learners! This engaging field trip for Pre-K and Kindergarten students includes a hands-on workshop all about seeds, seed germination, and plant development. Students will engage their senses while discovering different types of seeds and planting their own seeds to bring home. Admission to the Botanical Gardens, along with a self-guided scavenger hunt and time to explore our plant collections, is included.
