We'll include three stations: Nature Journaling - We'll take the group through a series of prompts that teach basic scientific inquiry skills and practice plant ID. These prompts are intended to help learn the difference between jumping to conclusions and seeing what you see without trying to immediately explain it. In example, we often point to a brown leaf. This is an observation, while it is often that participants jump to dead leaf. Eat Your Weeds/Dye Collection Tour - Explore the Garden with a multi-sensory tour that includes touching and tasting some of our favorite edible plants. Dye plants - We will demonstrate flower pounding. We'll introduce our favorite and most easily grown dye plants. Allow folks to harvest them, and then show several techniques for creating art on fabric. If time permits, this station will also teach edible weeds.
GUIDELINES: Dress for the weather, bring water and sunscreen.
