Kids in the Garden

March 13, 2025 @ 3:30 pm – 4:30 pm

| SLNC

Join us in collaboration with Let’s Grow Akron for weekly hands-on gardening activities for children of all ages. Seed, sow, water, harvest and enjoy! Each week we’ll have a game or craft, garden activity and a snack themed around what is growing and ready to harvest in the garden. In the event of inclement weather, the program will be moved indoors.
