Insect Investigators (SUNSET PARK)
Description
Our insect "friends and foes" have a big impact on the farm. Participants engage in organic pest management practices, identify and examine insects and worms, and plant seeds to cultivate pollinator pathways, gaining a deeper understanding of ecosystems, habitats, and the food chain through the fascinating microorganism of the insect world!
