Today's Dr. Dirt

Meet Dr. Dirt and Lauren

Hey everyone! I am Dr. Michael Schmitt, also known as Dr. Dirt. I have lived in Minnesota a long time and I am a scientist/professor at the University of Minnesota where I study soils and crops. It is a pleasure to be involved with the South Minneapolis Day Camp: Soil & Spirit. Along with my daughter Lauren, we made some videos that we hope you can learn how science and the bible can go together with your Day Camp.

Hi campers! My name is Dr. Lauren Schmitt. I grew up in Minnesota, but now I live in Washington DC and work as a scientist at the University of Maryland where I study trees, forests and soil. I’m excited to be a part of the South Minneapolis Day Camp: Soil & Spirit. My dad, Dr. Dirt, and I have made a video for each day of the week and shared some of our favorite videos that other scientists have made. We hope you enjoy!

parts of a plant

The Parable of the Sower story that we heard today focuses on where seeds may or may not be able to germinate. In this video we learn about other parts of the plant like leaves, flowers and fruits. Watch until the end for fun food plant trivia!

video time lapse of a bean seed

These beans are a lot like the peas that we planted. This video shows the bean seed germinating into a plant, but at a super fast speed. Notice how the roots grow too – you can’t see that above the ground.
