Students of all ages are invited to learn with us! We have award-winning educators on our team to help teachers build their day at the Arboretum through engaging curriculum and hands-on learning. Start planning your field trip today.
The first, second, and third Tuesdays of the month from September - April, arboretum educators guide registered homeschoolers through hands-on, playful pedagogies to learn through nature. Join us as we hit the trails, meadows, pond, and gardens to explore topics like math in nature, ecology, classification and adaptations, nature art, and much more! Learn more and register below.
Register for week long day-camps to beat summer boredom. Campers will experiment, learn to build forts, explore the woods, and play. Indoor spaces will be used to cool off and keep dry, but the fun will happen all over the arboretum's natural spaces. Sessions are 8:00am - 12:00pm Monday - Friday.
Teen Environmental Education Network New to the gardens are TEENs! Each spring, applications will be open for students aged 13–18 to spend Monday–Friday during the summer at the Arboretum exploring environmental issues, gaining real-world knowledge of agriculture, forestry, and environmental education, as well as completing projects to build a portfolio for pathways into the work force or college after high school.
