Beginner Botany is our first Buds & Blooms program. From the air we breathe to the clothes we wear, our relationship with plants far exceeds consumption. Let’s investigate the many ways we interact with our botanical buddies while exploring the McLane Center’s Pollinator Garden. We’ll learn how it is that plants create their own food before oftentimes becoming a food source for someone else!  A scavenger hunt to put our new botanical knowledge to use will conclude this interactive program. 

Intended for kids and families, the Buds & Blooms Series is a compilation of five in-person public programs intended to introduce participants to the magic and wonder of our native plants and pollinators. Occurring monthly through October, each program highlights a topic pertaining to pollinators and includes an interactive activity as well as a take away. Parental supervision is required and content/material is best suited for children ages 4-12.

This program is free of cost, but RSVP’s are required to reserve your spot.
