ABOUT

Did you know that your garden’s smallest inhabitants are also some of its greatest helpers? Ladybirds, beetles, snails, and worms all play essential roles in keeping plants healthy and thriving.


This workshop, for kids aged 7–10, includes a mini bug safari around the farm, where participants will hunt for these fascinating garden creatures and learn about their important work in our ecosystem. Children will see how these tiny helpers contribute to soil health, pollination, and pest control.


Then, we’ll get hands-on with a creative activity: make insects and bug hotels from clay, natural materials, and recycled items. These little homes give garden visitors a safe place to live while helping the garden flourish. It’s a fun and educational way for young learners to celebrate the creatures that make our gardens grow!
