Doris I Schnuck Children's Garden Seasonal Closing Weekend October 30, 2010

Learn about creative cucurbits from the gourd family, including where they come from and how we use them, and decorate a pumpkin with natural materials (one per child, while supplies last). Create a packet of festive spring seeds to start your own garden from the ground up at home. Stop by the Tree Trunk Pavilion for tall tree tales and learn about the fascinating world of forests with a free native tree sapling (one per child, while supplies last). Face painters will be on hand in the Gazebo to color children's cheeks with Halloween and autumn-themed designs. Make sure to keep your eyes peeled for the Children's Garden mascot, Finn the frog, walking about and greeting visitors with a friendly wave and high-five.
