"Read and Seed" with Grow Food, Grow Hope
February 27, 2010 2:00 p.m. Wilmington College

Our monthly youth-literacy program designed to get kids talking about and playing with food has been a great success so far, and we're constantly improving the experience for our kids.

The next "Read and Seed" will be on Saturday, February 27 from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. Participants will learn about flowers, and will be able to take their own flower pot home to watch grow. Check-in will start at 1:30 at the Center for Service & Civic Engagement on campus. Children will be split into three categories: Lil' Sprouts - ages 2-4; Seedlings - ages 5-7, and Blossoms - ages 8-12.
