Golden Days Gardening Club - Summer Program
The Golden Days Gardening Club is a summer program for our daycare children, running June through August, and we are excited to partner with members of our community to share their gardening knowledge and talents with our kids.
Through planting, watering, and caring for the garden, children will learn patience, responsibility, and a respect for nature. They will also have the opportunity to connect with community members of all ages as they work side by side, share stories, and enjoy meaningful time together outdoors.
This program is designed to nurture growth — in the garden, in our children, and within our community — while keeping learning engaging, active, and fun
