If you’re looking for a fun activity for your youngster this summer, look no further than our Seed to Sprout program! This program is for children ages 3 to 5 and is a chance for them to learn about nutrition, gardening, nature and practice social and creative skills. Join us this summer on San Juan or Lopez Island!

You don’t need to preregister to join – just come on by! Children will learn about plants and insects through singing, crafting and movement. Families are welcome to join the fun, and a caregiver is required to remain with their child during the class. If English is not your family’s primary language, please let us know ahead of time so we can explore interpretation resources.
