Special Event Saturday: Spring Planting!

A year full of special events is planned at the Historical Society’s Ellicott MillsChildren’s Museum.  On the second Saturday of eight months in spring and fall the doors will open at 1:30 p.m. for registered children to participate in 90 minute, hands-on activities which are both meaningful and fun.  All children, ages 7 and up, are welcome.  Girl Scouts who attend will receive a certificate of participation, which will qualify them for a badge.

Due to capacity constraints at the little Museum, these are drop-off activities.  Adults are invited next door to enjoy the Museum of Howard County History, then pick the children up at 3:00. 

Registration fee is $5.00

At this event, children will learn of Howard County’s farm tradition, then plant mini-gardens to take home.  They will also do some planting on the Museum grounds.  Junior Scouts may earn their “Gardener” badge
