Leaf & Learn
At our Leaf & Learn program, kids ages 2-5 can get their first taste of volunteering for a good cause! In a supportive atmosphere, they’ll show care for the park with easy, age-appropriate tasks. This includes things like planting seeds, picking up small pieces of trash with kid-sized grabbers, and “feeding” a worm farm with shredded paper. By being part of this volunteer group, kids will learn that they are an important member of a community that helps keep their neighborhood clean and green.
The group will meet at the FDR Park Learning Garden. Enter at the Broad Street entrance and head to picnic site 19, by the maintenance shed. Grown-ups sign up on GivePulse, and must remain throughout the activity. Older siblings are welcome to come along for the fun. Families can choose to come to any or all of the events!
