Following the relevant directive of the Ministry of Health, the activity is cancelled.
In addition to being a fun hobby, gardening is also relaxing and helps both kids and adults to develop their skills, enhance their sense of responsibility and boost their self-confidence. In this new SNFCC workshop series, children and adults learn the value and importance of gardening, they discover its secrets, and talk about how plants grow and develop, and what their needs are. We work in teams to create a beautiful and productive vegetable garden in the Stavros Niarchos Park garden beds: Prepare it, make planting beds and gradually plant seasonal vegetables. We experience gardening tasks, including seeding, planting, watering, nutrition, protection, hoeing and weeding.
Wildflowers and weeds in the garden: The importance of biodiversity
In March, we explore biodiversity in the SNFCC’s springtime Vegetable Garden. We look for seasonal wildflowers and greens, while watching young insects in the Stavros Niarchos Park. Later, we will plant tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, eggplants, zucchini and other seasonal vegetables.
