Who doesn't like to play in the dirt?! Join us for a special event on December 5, 2019 in celebration of World Soils Day. World Soils Day is an annual day of awareness organized by the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organization.

Get the dirt on dirt from 5:00 - 6:00 PM in the Community Room. In a series of hands-on activities for all ages, discover the secrets of one of the planet's most important natural resources: Soil!

Then, join us from 6:00 - 7:00 PM in the Science Forum where you'll have a chance to meet soil scientists and local farmers for a panel discussion on "Soils Past, Present, and Future." What do soils have to do with climate change? Why has the United Nations called for urgent action to stop soil erosion? What can soils teach us about Earth's ancient history? This is the place to find out!
