September 2021: Life Cycle of a Salad
Plant Chicago, located in Chicago's Back of the Yards neighborhood, has a mission to cultivate local circular economies. They are hosting a workshop for our Bigs and Littles!
In this workshop students learn about our aquaponic system, harvest greens, make their own salad, eat the salad, and compost their scraps in our worm composting bins. Explore the various loops and cycles of a typical salad by considering what nutrients fish, plants, humans, and worms need to survive, and how they are all connected. (Recommended for 1st-6th grade)
When: Saturday, September 25th from 12.30-2pm
Where: Google Meets (virtual, link will be sent to those who register)
