Come to the Joppa Flats Education Center to enjoy and learn about coastal harvests of all kinds as the seasons change! Science activities, crafts, and games for ages 2-12 with families, and free!

Nature's bounty abounds during this festive time of year. Sample delicious homemade treats made with local beach plums and cranberries. Inhale the aroma of white pine tea or a bayberry cancle. Boldly bite into a seaweed salad or nibble on some pickleweed.

For ages 7 and up, test your skill at tree identification, dissect native and invasive fruits and compare, take a guided birding walk, and make a take-home plant print.

For ages 2 to 6, we'll have storytelling, crafts, and guided games about trees, birds, and seashells both indoors and out. Bring your appreciation (and your appetite!) and come enjoy nature's harvest with your family.

This program is open to all ages. Children must be accompanied by adults. This is a rain-or-shine event. Nature-themed attire is welcome!
