Note:  Many of the activities just described involve things like soil, water, and other components like food dye, which have the potential to spill, or stain. Effort is made to keep the area as clean possible, but if desired, many of these activities are flexible and can be done either inside or outside as needed. Time frames listed are average, and can also be shifted to work with your schedules. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an activity please call the Washington County Soil Conservation District at 301-797-6821, Ext. 3.
