Garden Biology: Plants & Pollinators

Investigating the secret life of plants and the garden biome!

A fun hands-on workshop where children investigate how plants grow from germination through to pollination, and discover how insects help keep our gardens healthy.

What we explore:

  • 🌱 Growth: From germination to successful pollination.
  • 🐝 Pollinators: The vital role of insects in our gardens.
  • 🍂 Decomposition: How dead plant material breaks down.
  • 🔬 Cell Science: Differences between plants and animals.
  • 🌵 Adaptation: How plants survive in strange climates.

✨ Reliability You Can Trust

Since 2004, our founder has ensured that biology is made accessible through high-quality specimens and museum-grade models.

Our team has reached over 4 million students globally, delivering programs that bridge the gap between classroom theory and real-world natural science.
