Dig Into Nature (ages 5-12)

Our goal is to get children outdoors so we have created this special program for ages 5 to 12. Join us as we discover “Flower Power” learning about the amazing powers flowers as we go on a wildflower hike and “dissect” a flower. Each program includes time exploring in nature and relies on the spirit of adventure to guide discovery. Thanks to a generous donation from the Bodenwein Foundation, these programs are offered free of charge to New London County residents. PLEASE PRE-REGISTER. All Dig Into Nature programs meet at DPNC. NOTE: Please make sure children are dressed for the weather. Members & Nonmembers: Free
