All program activities are outside, and each week features a different theme. Taught by educators from Buttonwood Nature Center, home of The Institute, programs include educational activities related to the season and theme. Students may attend any or all sessions.
During this program, students will learn about the life cycle of a plant and what a plant needs to survive. They will hike through the park looking for plants in all different stages of life, and then get to paint a flowerpot and plant a seed in it to take home!
