Join Ranger Amie to help prepare our organic family garden. Make sure you and your family wear old clothes and shoes because we will get wet and dirty. Help us prepare our garden beds for the upcoming growing seasons. During class we will explore many of the roots and shoots that overwintered in the garden, plant some new ones, and look to see what kind of earthly critter might be living there. Each family will make their own garden starter tray to take home. Class is limited to 10. Please email us @ Ansnaturectr@an https://www.facebook.com/events/2859456457604204
