IckyFest @ Brooklyn Children's Museum |
One of Midtown Carnivores' primary goals is that of
community outreach and education. We've been delighted provide
plants and/or workshops to the
Brooklyn Children's Museum , the
Horticultural Society of New York and several member families
from the New York City Home Educator's Alliance. We continue to look for new partnerships in
providing educational and outreach opportunities with both public and
private organizations.
The first part of our standard
workshop is observational.
Participants to our workshops will be able to see and learn about a
variety of carnivorous plants, including species from following
carnivorous plant families:

The second part of the workshop is
typically hands-on. Participants will be given a pot, moistened media and
carnivorous plant seeds or gemmae (seasonally available) to pot up their own carnivorous plant right at the
workshop.
Please also note that we are happy to
tailor our workshops to emphasize the topics that you request.
