Hop on transit and head to the Montreal Botanical Garden for a half-day of hands-on discovery!

Wrap up with a visit to the Youth Gardens, where thousands of young people are getting their hands dirty learning about urban agriculture. A guided experience from start to finish, this trip is perfect for anyone looking to bring fresh ideas back to their school food program.
