$20 Kids Camp in July at Green Acres Nursery & Supply

This summer, Green Acres Nursery & Supply invites families to discover a whole new way to shop and play with the launch of their Kids’ Camp at Green Acres Nursery & Supply — a fun and educational gardening experience designed just for kids while moms (and dads!) enjoy a relaxing shopping trip through the nursery.
Running every Tuesday in July from 10:00–10:45 a.m., these engaging, hands-on camps will introduce children to the magical world of gardening through bees, berries, bugs, and blooms. Each 45-minute session includes a themed lesson, a planting or craft activity, a scavenger hunt, coloring, stickers, and a sweet garden-themed snack.
“Our new Kids’ Camp gives families a way to connect with nature and gardening in a fun, low-stress way,” said Jen Crowley, Marketing Director at Green Acres Nursery & Supply. “Parents can shop, stress-free, for plants while their children enjoy a creative, educational, and safe experience.”
