Clary Gardens "Virtual" Storytime, Mondays, 10am (online), starting December 7, 2020, and continuing weekly.
Ever wonder why a bear does not have a tail, or how an elephant’s trunk got so long? How about what happens inside a beehive, or in the ocean? Join us for our NEW weekly story time and find out! Every week we will be reading a different children’s book with some nature element. The stories will last 10-15 minutes and will be designed to get little minds wondering. The videos will be posted across our platforms to ensure easy access to all viewers. This is a free program brought to you by our donors, but donations are always welcome. Join us Mondays at 10 am!
Clary Gardens is excited to announce some upcoming events for our younger gardeners and nature lovers. Starting on Monday, December 7th, we will be sharing a "Virtual" Garden Adventure Storytime. This event will be accessible from our website or across all our media platforms, or can be saved and viewed later. **A link will be shared from our YouTube Channel across platforms at the designated time of the event. Viewers may watch at a later time.**
Our local garden and nature educator, Jodi Shrimplin, will be reading a story each week to our garden viewers about nature. Jandi Adams, garden director, shares that the goal of this weekly event is to develop a community of future gardeners. "We want to get children engaged in nature and the world around them. Even though we're entering the coldest months of the year, many folks are trapped at home and are looking for educational outlets. We're hoping to be that safe outlet for families to enjoy. It's also our hope that these individuals will learn more about the gardens and possibly venture out to visit in person."
Clary Gardens is dedicated to providing access to horticultural education, environmental stewardship, local history and the arts. This is a FREE public program made possible by our garden donors and members. Every dollar counts when it comes to educating our youth - Join us in this endeavor by clicking on the Donate button or learning more on our website.
