Plantable Paper Workshop

Aug 06, 2019 12:30pm

Visit the Greenbelt Nature Center and create a 5×7 piece of “plantable” recycled paper while learning about the importance of native plants! The paper is made by blending old newsprint and junk mail to create new paper pulp. Participants will add a native seed mix that will then be pressed into paper sheets. Once dried, the paper can be used for cards or letters, and later the paper can be planted to start growing the seeds embedded within.

The workshop is open to all ages, but is recommended for children 5+. This program is free but registration is required.
