Kubota Garden Kid Naturalist
Ages 7-11 years old

June 6, 2026, 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM

 

Youth participants explore Kubota Garden as a living ecosystem—discovering its history, purpose, plants, and animals through hands-on observation, data collecting and drawing. In doing so, they become young ambassadors and community scientists for the Garden and natural spaces beyond. Each program is unique based on what the season and weather brings. Free. Registration required.
