Kids in the Garden

Your child can get their hands dirty while learning the basics of gardening during this outdoor session hosted in partnership with Let's Grow Akron. Kids of all ages are welcome to participate in hands-on activities like planting seeds, watering, and harvesting fresh produce from the garden. The hour-long program wraps up with a game or craft activity, a garden-themed snack, and other surprises based on what's currently growing and ready to pick. If rainy weather rolls in, the activities will move indoors so your plans won't be spoiled. For any questions before you arrive, you can reach the Nature Realm Visitors Center at 330-865-8065 during their regular hours.
