Enjoy hands-on STEAM-powered explorations throughout the gardens and greenhouse at the Urban Environmental Center. Children and caregivers experiment, discover, create and play with nature as inspiration. This month we'll tap into our oldest roots by making a safe fire in the garden and learning about the science of fire.
