Description:
Join the Blacksburg Price House Nature Center on Saturday, September 15th for a special program entitled "Fantastic Plants". Fun for all ages.
Plants provide oxygen for us to breathe, but can be often be overlooked because they don’t crawl, or jump…or do they? This Saturday we will explore the fascinating lives of our quiet green friends, the plants. We will identify plants around the nature center, explore seeds and how they are transported, and can plant seeds will be to take home with you.
Our Volunteers from VT Biological Sciences, VT College of Natural Resources and Environment, VT Biological Systems Engineering, and VT Service Learners will be on hand to help you play and learn.
Limited parking is available in the Nature Center Driveway, on Wharton Street, and within two short blocks on Clay Street at spout spring parking strip and along Church Street in the public parking lot.
