Trees are amazing and so important to our lives. We depend on them for so many things such as clean air, shade, as a windbreak and even as food for the soil and creatures on the ground. A tree is not just a plant. It's a whole and vital ecosystem. The Kids in the Garden series encourages environmental stewardship and promotes a healthy lifestyle while the kids (and adults) enjoy discovering the science of our natural world. Each program includes hands on activities with project lists. Activity: Grow Bonsai Trees.
