Experience the Diversity of Crops Through the Senses

Elementary school classes (grades 1–4)

Die Vielfalt der Nutzpflanze

Apples, carrots, and lemon balm: We’ll have fun exploring seasonal fruits and vegetables, fragrant herbs, and edible flowers, and ask ourselves: What’s the difference between fruits and vegetables? Are there really purple kohlrabi and yellow beets? How big are radish seeds, and do they grow slowly or quickly? Here, we’ll learn about the diversity of crops. Join us on a journey of discovery into the world of the plants we use every day!

The workshop takes place outdoors. Children need weather-appropriate clothing and adequate sun protection!
