Powering your plate!

What we choose to eat affects everything from our everyday energy levels, to how fast our body grows, to the health of the plant and animal life around us. In this hands-on workshop, kids will be introduced to concepts of nutrition, healthy food choices, and how these choices affect our environment.

Join us for interactive activities teaching kids about balanced meals, processed foods, and edible plant parts!

During a storytime we will read Up in the Garden and Down in the Dirt, a story that details a garden’s journey over the course of a year, and the work it takes by gardeners and many different critters to foster a healthy, productive garden ecosystem.

Kids will explore a worm bin, gaining hands-on knowledge of a composting system and the decomposers that power it!
