We had an amazing time at Science Art Forest! 10/10 recommend following and joining their events. Today's lesson was animals that lay eggs! Then Liberty discovered some edible plants and the teacher 100% embraced the side lesson. We got to to taste test honeysuckle, Stevia, and borage flowers and took home some Indian strawberries, wild garlic, and wood sorrel.
