Learn about the plants and trees of the Finger Lakes region!


Excited About Botany:

"I would like to go to botany camp because I like gardening. My first year gardening I planted a few tomato plants next to a black walnut tree - bad idea. I found out black walnut trees destroy tomato plants. I want to learn more of these things so I won't have these problems in the future." Robby, age 11, Geneva

"I love plants (mostly flowers) and I would love to see how they grow and what makes them grow. My family plants flowers all the time and it would be so cool to know as much about them as my Grandma knows. I spend a lot of time with my Grandma every year planning and planting her flower beds and I think it is not only fun but fascinating. I would love to learn about the plants that grow the best where I live and to share the information with my mom and my grandma. It would be awesome to spent part of the summer learning about something interesting." - Brianna, age 11, Geneva
