Kids in Nature
After-School Garden Club
It’s time for our Fall session of the After School Garden Club at St. John. After-
school gardening classes teach children about plants and nature. Classes are
conducted by Maryland Master Gardeners.
Children will work outdoors, weather permitting, planting flowers and crops in the
school’s raised beds. We began work on a pollinator garden last Spring and hope to
continue to add to and cultivate it.
Students will learn about seeds and how they develop into plants. Students will also
learn about insects, butterflies, and other pollinators.
Ten classes are on Mondays from 3:00 – 4:00, September 30 until December 9 (no
session on October 21). A detailed list of classes will be provided at the first class.
If you have questions, please contact Marsha Brett at [email protected] or
call me at (410) 931-1261.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The cost for the After School Garden Club is $40 per child. If you are writing a
check, it should be made to St. John the Evangelist School and returned to your
child’s teacher with this form.
