Dragonfly Explorers - Session 2

Service Description

This engaging six-week series invites kids to take a closer look at the intricate details of farm life while also expanding their perspective to the larger world outside the farm. Through a combination of hands-on activities, exploration, and discovery, participants will journey from the micro (the farm in front of them) to the macro (the broader world beyond). Throughout the series, children will engage in hands-on activities that foster curiosity and encourage exploration. By the end of the program, they will have gained a comprehensive understanding of the farm ecosystem and its connection to the broader world, inspiring a lifelong appreciation for nature and science. Designed for school-aged kids, this program is perfect for curious minds who love to get their hands dirty and learn by doing. Don’t miss this chance to inspire a love of nature, gardening, and discovery! Spaces are limited, sign up today to reserve your spot!
