Expand your knowledge about the natural world, explore a new topic, or learn a new skill by enrolling in one of the many classes we offer through the year. Adult education classes include lecture series, field classes, and garden related topics. We offer family programs that help caregivers guide children (and themselves) in nature study. Programs for scouts or groups of children make learning about plants fun.
