Junior Gardeners at The Nest

Kids who love getting outdoors and exploring nature will enjoy this hands-on gardening program at The Nest. During each one-hour session, children and their caregivers can wander through the garden, dig in the dedicated plot area, and take part in garden-focused activities while helping maintain the space. It's a casual, relaxed environment—no pressure or formal structure—making it perfect for families who want to spend time together while learning about plants and growing things. Best of all, this program is completely free and doesn't require you to sign up in advance. Just show up, and your family can jump in. Keep in mind that events may occasionally be delayed or canceled due to weather or other unexpected circumstances, so it's worth calling ahead if conditions seem questionable. This is a great option for families looking for affordable outdoor fun right in the Durham area.
