Community Missionary Baptist ChurchKids Summer Classes - Operation: Plants for Birds
Professor Salvia leads a kid friendly adventure into how native plants support birds, combining Audubon’s Plants for Birds with the Junior Master Gardener plant curriculum. This session focuses on soils and water, with hands on activities that include planting seeds and exploring how these basics affect plant growth. Along the way, participants learn to spot invasive species like the notorious Commander Privet and discover which native plants create welcoming habitat for birds in yards and nearby parks. Each topic in the series is presented twice during the week with the same content, so families can choose the day that fits their schedule or attend multiple weeks. Best for ages 7 to 12. Sessions are one hour long, and a parent or guardian must remain on the preserve grounds during class.
