Morris-Jumel: Family & Community Days: Grow Your Own Herbs

Join us for April’s Family & Community Day at Morris-Jumel Mansion with a fun, spring-time hands-on activity! Families are invited to celebrate National Garden Month and Earth Day learning about historic herbs and how to grow and use them. This hands-on activity is perfect for all ages and a great way to welcome the new growing season. Weather permitting, we will explore the herb garden in the Sunken Garden. Bring your own empty toilet paper roll or paper towel roll if you can.

¡Acompáñenos en el Día de la Familia y la Comunidad de abril en la Morris-Jumel Mansion y celebre la inminente llegada de la primavera con una actividad práctica y divertida! Se invita a las familias a celebrar el Mes Nacional de la Jardinería aprendiendo sobre hierbas históricas, así como a cultivarlas y utilizarlas. Esta actividad práctica es ideal para todas las edades y constituye una excelente manera de dar la bienvenida a la nueva temporada de cultivo.
