In this fun-filled class, children ages 4-10 and their parent(s) will learn how to plant seeds, transplant young seedlings, and track the growth through harvest of common garden plants. We start seeds by recycling or reusing common household items to form mini-pots, filling them with a special seed starting mix, and learn the basics of photosynthesis and what a plant needs in order to grow. We will then head out to the garden at the 1866 Fritz Kruger homestead and practice planting in the garden, while our longhorns watch from across the pathway.
