Homeschool Days: The Science of Soil
Soil gives life to all the plants we grow and eat, but how do we know good soil from bad? Let’s “dig in” to the fascinating science of soil. This is a drop-off program.
Dirt is having its moment. On August 15, Frelinghuysen Arboretum is running a drop-off Homeschool Days session focused on the science of soil: what makes it healthy, what makes it not, and why that matters for every plant that ends up on your plate. It’s a solid topic for kids who’ve ever wondered why some gardens thrive and others just sit there looking sorry. The Morris County Parks listing is where you’ll find the specifics on times, age ranges, and registration, so check there before you show up with a car full of curious kids.
