Discover the wonders of plants and create your own botanical keepsake!

In this hands–on holiday program, kids will become plant detectives on a guided garden walk, uncovering the secrets of leaves, flowers, and plant adaptations. They’ll conduct a fun experiment to learn more about the plants around them, then create their own herbarium pressing – a beautiful botanical keepsake to take home. Spaces are limited, so book now for an unforgettable botanical adventure!

Suitable for children aged 5 – 12 years with an accompanying adult.
