Fall Gardening Experiences for Kids

9/21/2018

Following another successful, fun-filled summer of gardening experiences for elementary and middle school students, the RIGC is thrilled to announce we’re extending these free gardening opportunities for kids into the fall. 

Gardener and educator Julia Ferguson will lead kids through an exploration of concepts like cycles, diversity, and interdependence. And kids will get hands on experience digging, pruning, and composting in the RIGC Student Garden (a generous donation by garden member Elizabeth Stapen). 

It's free, and you can sign your kids up for one class or for all.
​Space is limited, so please sign up soon!
