Circle of Life! Children's Saturday Gardening Series! (Ages 6-9 flexible)

Together we will discover the wonders of spring and where our food comes from. Join instructor Carling Sothoron, a current Waldorf school teacher and garden educator, for a hands-on introduction to the fun and magic of planting, tending and harvesting fresh fruits and vegetables. Participants will get to cultivate a part of the Oakhurst Garden and prepare delicious recipes using freshly picked ingredients. We’ll experience nature up close as we explore all corners of the garden, dig for critters and make earth art. This adventure in gardening will provide participants opportunities to use their five senses, care for the chickens, snack on their accomplishments and get their hands dirty. We will also learn how to make compost, identify different seeds and plants, and discover what it takes to cultivate your own garden. Fresh apples and garden produce provided as snack. Class needs a minimum 7 people. Please spread the word. Drop off class. Registration deadline is May 1 and 15, 10am.
