Dirty Hands, Healthy Kids Youth Gardening Series

The 'Dirty Hands, Healthy Kids' Twin Creeks District Youth Gardening Series is slated to last throughout our typical garden series, which runs from April-September with a variety of in-person and take-home activity kits available. (Zoom sessions will be an option for youth/families not comfortable with attending in-person sessions.) 

We will cover several important steps of the gardening foundation, topics including but not limited to Soil Health, Seed Planting, Transplanting, Water Conservation, Pollination, Preparing for Exhibit, Community Service, Proper Harvesting, Eating Your Healthy Produce, Preserving Your Crop. WHEW!... It's going to be a blast! 

This series will be targeted for Grades 3-5, but any and all age groups are welcome to join us! 4-H Members and non-4-Her's are all welcome alike! Family participation is encouraged! 

Registration for the series will remain open through September, but is encouraged early to ensure you are receiving direct notifications of upcoming sessions and take-home activities!
