Seeds Away!
Ages 3-5
Seeds don't just sprout, they're on the move! Be part of a travel tale about seeds that pop, glide, and hitch hike to find a place to grow. Chart the growth of giant sunflowers and explore the Children's Garden. Plant a Teddy Bear sunflower to grow at home.

Butterflies and Hummingbirds
Ages 6-12
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to taste with your feet or fly upside down?  Discover the amazing lives of butterflies and hummingbirds, some of our most colorful garden visitors.  How fast can a hummingbird flap its wings? How does a caterpillar change into a butterfly? What garden flowers do these winged wonders like best?  Pot up a plant to attract hummingbirds and butterflies to your home garden.
