Enjoy a 3-day camp of fun exploration of the various habitats at Pittsburgh Botanic Garden. Habitats that will be investigated include the Lotus Pond, the Dogwood Meadow, and the Allegheny Plateau Woodlands. We will engage in pond dipping, bird watching, insect collecting, tree identification, nature journaling and free play.
This is a drop-off camp. A small snack will be provided, but campers are required to pack their own bag lunch each day. Dress for the weather as we will be outside exploring most of the time!
