The Beanstalk Children's Garden Officially Open For Tours
The Leanna Flandermeyer Beanstalk Children's Garden is now accepting reservations for group tours!
This garden is a unique urban learning environment where children are invited to see, smell, touch and taste growing plants. They'll gasp in wonder as they learn where their food is grown, discover new favorite foods and leave inspired to make healthy choices.
Don't let its name fool you - the Beanstalk is a fascinating space for people of all ages, not just children. You'll find many of the seed and plant varieties that KCCG offers to gardeners growing in the Beanstalk, including fun and colorful varieties from our Beanstalk Seeds line. The next time you're at the KCCG office, plan a little extra time to take a tour and see what's growing here!
To book a tour, email us at tours{at}kccg.org.
Please note - self guided tours are free (donations accepted).
