Tiny Diner Kids Camp: Pollinators! (and Other Helpful Bugs)
We encounter them every day, but do you know who the pollinators are? During this class, kids and families will learn about who our local friends are, what they do and why they are so important to the earth. We will then explore the garden and see if we can spot them on their favorite plants and flowers! There will be an opportunity for each child to create and leave class with their very own way to care for the pollinators.
This class is suitable for children ages 3 - 9 years old, but all are welcome! Parents are required to be on site throughout the duration of the class and are encouraged to participate! Please bring sunscreen, a hat and a water bottle for your child. This event is rain or shine.This class is pay what you can (suggested price per ticket $20). No one will be turned away if unable to pay! Email andrea.e@tinydiner.com with questions.
Instructor Information:
Megan Trehey is joyously overwhelmed by the beauty of the natural world. A forever student of the plants, she is dedicated to learning and growing the medicine of her bioregion as a way to cultivate healing within her community. With a background in early childhood education, she has extensive experience gardening with kids and families and has witnessed firsthand how vital it is for them to experience the wonder and magic of engaging with the earth and growing their own food. She has several teachers and mentors to thank in igniting her passion for this work, including Kathryn Jensen, Johanna O'Tigham, Linda Buturian and Lise Wolff, with whom she completed a nine month herbal apprenticeship. She is continuing her studies in herbalism with the Green Wisdom School of Natural and Botanical medicine this summer. You can find Megan working and playing with Land by Hand, an ecological design, build and education organization that utilizes the principles of permaculture. landbyhand.org
Clare Gardner Nieto grew up roaming the woods and fields with her mother, a self-taught naturalist and expert gardener, who taught her from an early age the names and signatures of plants and the knowing of the natural world. Clare has studied herbalism with Lise Wolff, Liz Johnson and Matthew Wood, and flower essence therapy with Martin Bulgerin in Minneapolis and the Flower Essence Society in California. She is passionate about sharing her knowledge with kids so that they too get to know the wonder and magic of the natural world around them.
