Join Working Food for a fun-filled morning at the Gainesville Giving Garden! In our new, hands-on Garden Tots classes, budding farmers will discover the wonders of plants, nature, and gardening through sensory play, art, and interactive activities. Each week features a new theme designed to engage curious young minds.
Garden Tots meets every Tuesday from April 8 to April 29, 9:30 – 10:30 AM. These classes are designed for children ages 2 to 5, but older and younger siblings are welcome. An adult caregiver must accompany all children - these activities allow kids and caregivers to enjoy and explore the garden together.
Schedule (Classes are held on Tuesdays from 9:30 AM-10:30 AM):
-April 8: Seed Explorers – Discover the magic of seeds! Investigate different types of seeds, how they travel, and what they need to grow.
-April 15: The Wonder of Worms – Dig into the world of wiggly worms! Learn how these tiny creatures help the soil and explore their important role in nature and our gardens.

-April 29: I’m a Farmer! – What does it take to grow food? Little farmers will learn about planting, harvesting, and the important work of growing food.
