Moon Terrace Learning Laboratory At The Santa Fe Botanical Garden

Santa Fe Garden Club, Zone XII

2017 Founders Fund Runner Up

Ethnobotanical Moon Terrace Learning Laboratory at the Santa Fe Botanical Garden will emphasize hands-on learning. Students of all ages will experience the genius of indigenous agriculture - the interdependence of plants and people; learn plant lore of indigenous cultures; plant and harvest native terrace crops; grind corn and bake bread in traditional “horno” ovens; dye fibers and weave baskets from plants grown on-site; and learn about ancient water-conserving “Zuni Bowls” in a bilingual teaching environment.
