Kids in the Garden
Bringing Kids Back to Nature Nursery Wholesale

On the first Saturday of every month, Bachman's helps kids get their hands dirty—literally! Our Kids in the Garden classes will have your children learning about and playing with plants, blooming flowers and other garden staples like birdfeeders and baskets.

Classes begin with a reading selection and end with a project related to the subject that kids can take home. For just $5, it's a great alternative from TV and video games!

Kids in the Garden events are best for ages 3-7. Classes are led by experienced and educationally focused staff members. Parents are welcome, but not required, to stay. 

Class Schedule
Classes are held from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. at all Bachman's Floral, Gift and Garden Centers. Register online for the location nearest you. Spots fill up quickly, so RSVP early! Register now

Oct. 6,  2012 | Leaf Hunt
Why do leaves change color? Kids will learn answers to that question and more through story time, a classroom lecture and a hands-on craft. They'll also go on a leaf hunt and make their own leaf bouquet to take home. Register now

Nov. 3,  2012 | A Different Kind of Bulb
It's not a light bulb; it's a flower bulb! What kinds of flowers grow from bulbs and why? Kids will learn answers to those questions and more through story time, a classroom lecture and a hands-on craft. They'll leave the class with their own planted Paperwhite bulb. Register now

Dec. 1,  2012 | How Tall is Your Plant?
Why do some plants look taller or grow like a vine? Kids will learn answers to that question and more through story time, a classroom lecture and a hands-on craft. They'll leave the class after making a wire topiary with a vine wrapped around it. Register now
