Pick up a special "Pumpkin Kit" from the Garden, and join us online from your home for a fun-filled morning celebrating everyone's favorite October plant--the pumpkin!
We'll explore the botanical side of this lovely orange fruit, learn about its life cycle, flowers and pollinators, even how it's related to cucumbers and watermelons, and why Native Americans called corn, bean, and pumpkin "the three sisters".
Then we will dive into our Pumpkin Kit for some hands-on exploration and crafting, including art projects and making a musical shaker.
Workshop is all ages; parent participation may be needed for some.
Kit pick-up required from the Garden, available Wed Oct 13thru Sun Oct 17.
NOTE: All participants are required to sign into a personal Zoom account prior to joining meetings hosted by UC Berkeley.
