Garden Discovery

Garden Discovery is a special program for youth groups. It includes a detailed tour of areas of the garden and an age-appropriate garden learning activity. Bring a lunch to round out the morning before heading back to school.

Take a field trip to the Garden of the Sun where a fun and educational experience awaits youths of all ages. Among the learning activities offered by UC Master Gardeners are planting seeds, a pressed flower activity, scientific examination of plant parts, leaf rubbings, composting, exploring seed travel and Botany on a Plate nutrition education.
