What do you get when you add nature-inspired art, messy science, garden creations, outdoor play, and a sprinkle of magical imagination?
Wild Wonders!
In our popular after school program, we embrace the essence of childhood and the playfulness of the season! Creating crafts and cuisine from the garden, making messes in the mud kitchen, playing games, telling stories, nature journaling, and exploring arts and crafts are just some of the choices children will enjoy while savoring the magic of the season.

Dig in, grow, taste, and create!
In this hands-on program, Syre Elementary students will dive into the school garden through gardening and cooking adventures. Each week, children will plant, tend, and harvest seasonal fruits, vegetables, and herbs, then prepare simple, delicious recipes with their harvest.
Along the way, students will learn where food comes from, connect with nature, and discover the joy of eating what they’ve grown. From seed to snack, this program nurtures curiosity, healthy habits, and a lifelong love of fresh, garden-grown food.
✨ Featuring a local chef guest instructor!
