One great way to connect is volunteering as a special guest at Cultivate Mankato! During the month of March, our study is Recycle, Reduce, Reuse. This encompasses so many different areas: recycled art, sorting, composting, science experiments, repurposing used materials… So many possibilities! If you would like to be a classroom guest, let me know! We would love to have you! anissa@cultivatemankato.com Thinking ahead… April Study - Spring |
