🌱 While You’re Here

CHECK-IN:
Please check in with a team member upon arrival. We recommend arriving in the first 20 minutes of programming so your child can fully participate.

Children must be supervised at all times by a parent or caregiver. Please help maintain a safe, inclusive environment by keeping conversations appropriate for all ages.

COMMUNITY GUIDELINES:
We ask all visitors to treat the garden, materials, and one another with care and respect. Please return materials to their designated areas, avoid throwing items in the pond, dispose of trash properly, and add fruit/veggie scraps to our compost bin.

To ensure we share our garden responsibly, please only pick fruits, vegetables, and herbs with a team member.

PHONES:
Please keep phone use to a minimum and step away from learning spaces / program activities if taking a call.

PETS:
We love your pets, but they are not permitted in the garden for safety reasons.
