Seed Starter Activity

March 23, 2019

10:00 AM - 1:00 PM

Starting seeds with children indoors is a fun family gardening project! Kick off Spring with seed planting, then watch the seeds sprout at home up close. 

Kids will plant 6 easy-to-grow seed varieties with the help of their parent or guardian along with our knowledgeable staff. Then they will take the plantings home, along with an information sheet on successful growing tips. Children can watch the seeds sprout into flowers and vegetables from home! Transplant outside once the weather is fit, and enjoy the fruits of their labor this Summer! 

The activity is $10 per child and includes a slice of pizza, a drink, and a mini whoopie pie ($8 for the activity alone.) There are no specific time slots that can be reserved, but the event will take place beginning at 10:00AM and will conclude at 1:00PM; please come during this time when you are able. Registration is preferred and walk-ins will only be accepted if space is available. We do not guarantee a bountiful harvest, but do hope your child will have fun playing in the dirt and cultivating their green thumbs!
