Insects are always in and around the garden. Some are nice to have, while others do more harm than good. We will learn about the different types of garden insects, read Up in the Garden, Down in the Dirt by Kate Messner, go on a hunt in the Demonstration Garden and create a bug hotel! We will meet at the Harvest Hub. For ages 2-5 with an accompanying adult.
