"Trees & Water & Worms--Oh My!" Earth Week Open House! In-Person

Learn some fun hands-on STEAM Earth Science! Kids get "hands on" with worms-- nature's recyclers-- at the Vermicomposting display from Eaton County Resource Recovery, learn about local wildlife & ecosystems from Eaton County Parks, see how water moves through our ecosystem using the hands-on "EnviroScape" from the Michigan Department of Health & Human Services and play "How Lucky is Your Duck" from the Greater Lansing Regional Committee for Stormwater Management and gather information from the Tri-County Regional Planning Commission too.

Free seed giveaways (while supplies last), crafts and information on our Salamander Survey in partnership with Eaton County Parks, our Safer Bird migrations initiative from Spark of Science & Flight Path and other green initiatives in our community. Families who registered for a Free Tree seedling for their children from our partner Neighborhood Forest trees are ready for pickup too!
