SLO Botanical Garden Presents: Family Fun – The Mystery of Trees with Peace Academy of the Sciences and Arts

May 22, 2021 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden Presents: Family Fun: The Mystery of Trees

with Peace Academy of the Sciences and Arts

 

Bring the family for a morning of nature exploration at SLO Botanical Garden on Saturday, May 22 from 9 am until noon. Learn about the mystery of trees, take a guided hike, snack on food given to us by trees, plants seeds and more.

The SLO Botanical Garden is pleased to partner with the Peace Academy of the Sciences and Arts (PASA) to bring you this program. A message from PASA:

Learn how we connect with trees – as food, fiber, and building material – and how this relates to our connection to the environment, our home, and planet earth. There’s no well-being without nature’s well-being – it’s a reciprocal relationship and web. Just as seeds are planted in the soil around us, the seeds of wisdom, understanding, and compassion are planted in our minds and hearts. And it is our hope that children will answer the call to take responsibility as stewards and caretakers for protecting one another, the trees, and our home, Earth as we plant acorns to grow into mighty oaks at the SLO Botanical Garden.

 

This family event is geared towards children in elementary school, however those with younger and older children will benefit as we discuss the cycles of plant growth, reproduction, and ethnobotanical history, emphasizing the mighty oaks. Tickets for one adult + one child are $35 for Garden Members and $40 for the general public. To add an extra child is $10, and to add an extra adult is $25.
