Bees, Seeds, and Healthy Streams
This program explores how animals, plants, and waterways contribute to a healthy ecosystem. Students rotate through three stations: Seeds on the Move, Pollination Station, and Healthy Plants, Healthy Streams. Through these stations, they investigate how seed dispersal, animal and plant pollination pairs, and how plants maintain water quality in streams. Activities include hands-on experiments like testing seed floating and using dip nets to collect aquatic organisms. The trip fosters an understanding of biodiversity, plant-animal interactions, and environmental health through observation and interaction with local ecosystems.
