Covid Related Updates
Life Lab workshops at the Growing Classroom and in-person workshops hosted at other off-site locations have been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We will revisit in-person offerings in the spring of 2021 and provide updates on our website.
We do offer interactive, on-line workshops to support your work in the garden classroom. For more information about hosting an on-line workshop for your school or organization, please visit https://lifelab.org/
