Rainforest Retreat | Terrarium Workshop for Kids at the Botanical Gardens
The rainforest is home to the most biodiversity found on the planet. Explore the plant kingdom of the rainforest and create your own tropical planter to take home! In this workshop we learn about rainforest ecology, plant adaptations, and how to create a tropical rainforest planter. This special learning experience is best suited for children eight to thirteen years old.
Meet your instructor, Ellie!
Ellie joined our team in August 2022 as our Educator and Volunteer Coordinator. After growing up nearby in Akron, NY, Ellie went on to continue her education at the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Education and Interpretation. After graduating in the midst of the pandemic, she traveled and found a passion for educating people about environmental science and community outreach in Syracuse and Colorado before moving to the city of Buffalo. Ellie has a passion for all aspects of the natural world, with special interests in prehistoric plants, birds of prey, and mycology. She has recently completed her Masters of Education in Science Communication at the University at Buffalo and enjoys cooking, traveling, kayaking, hiking, and hanging out with her cats and tortoise in her free time!
