A family event exploring seasonal plants through creative activities. The South London Botanical Institute invites children aged 4-14 and their families to print with apples, potatoes and leeks, make a botanical scarecrow, and hunt for plants in the garden. Visitors can look at vegetables under the microscope, collect seeds to plant at home in spring, and learn about seeds, roots, dispersal and dormancy. Booking is essential for each child, who must be supervised at all times.
