Most of us know why a flower smells good ... but why do the leaves of certain plants have strong smells? Search for these scented plants and see what you think they smell like! Explore the science of scent. Plant some herbs to take home.
Plantastic Days are a free monthly drop-in program for families to discover through art, culture and science just how fantastic plants can be. Hand-on activities, crafts and scavenger hunts will engage toddlers through grandparents. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
