Camp Barstow

plant science

Plant scientists use their curiosity and knowledge to develop questions about the world of plants. Then they try to answer those questions with further observations and experiments in the laboratory and in the field. To earn this merit badge, Scouts will explore three of the most important plant science specialties: agronomy, horticulture, and field botany. Participants must grow/care for a plant for a designated amount of time. We will give them the plants and set them up for success with a google meet check-in at the completion of the time frame.

Offered: 1 Session Wednesday
