IBU Event: Eco Warrior Gardening Workshop + Jungle Walk

Little ones will have the opportunity to get their hands dirty, and pitch in as a volunteer in this fun and interactive experience led by experienced facilitators. 🌱

They will also get a healthy dose of nature on a little toddler-friendly hike. Additionally, fuel up with some tasty treats from The Rolling Pin by Nur, and that's not all - every child will bring home a mini planting kit to put their newfound gardening skills into practice!
