Eat Your Plants Preschool Gardening Series

Eat Your Plants is a fun and interactive program that introduces littles (ages 1-5) to gardening and vegetables through music, story time, gardening activities and more. Each time we meet, your child will get the chance to try a new vegetable snack harvested straight from our teaching garden. Each half hour session costs $5 to attend for the first child, plus $2 for each additional sibling.

Classes will take place every Thursday from October 19-December 14. We offer two time slots for each date, one starting at 9:30am and the second starting at 10:15am. Feel free to drop in for either class, but follow our Instagram or Facebook for any weather updates.

To find Brave Harvest, park at Curia on the Drag and look for the courtyard with the painted bus. Brave Harvest is through the gate on the right.
