Explore Allen Centennial Garden! This field trip will include:
- Nature Journaling - We'll take the group through a series of prompts that teach basic scientific inquiry skills and practice plant ID. Practice your ability to notice with all of your senses and to wait before jumping to conclusions.
- Eat Your Weeds/Dye Collection Tour - Learn about the garden with all of your senses as you smell, taste, and touch edible plants in the garden.
- Dye plants - We will demonstrate flower pounding. We'll introduce our favorite and most easily grown dye plants and then show several techniques for creating art on fabric.
GUIDELINES: Folks should bring water, walking shoes, and sunscreen, as the program will be outside. We'll spend about 30 minutes walking about the Garden at a slow pace. Please let us know if you have any food allergies we should be aware of before the tasting tour.**Capacity for this field trip is 25 people**
