Description
April showers bring May flowers—and this opportunity to explore campus gardens, greenhouses, and research facilities. Visit the DC Smith Greenhouse, Allen Centennial Garden, Steenbock Library, and the Wisconsin Energy Institute. Explore hands-on activities with seeds, plants and soil. Ask questions of Master Gardeners and meet UW scientists. Take home plants and seeds for your own garden (while supplies last). Kids age 12 and under – visit all four locations to earn a houseplant to take home!
