Tee Bush, horticulture instructor at Northeast Community College, speaks with students during a nature walk as part of a Horticulture Discovery day on the Norfolk campus recently. The College’s Horticulture and Early Childhood Education programs teamed up with Nebraska Extension – University of Nebraska-Lincoln to hold two special days designed to give area youth opportunities to learn more about nature. In addition to the nature walk, each three-hour event included a scavenger hunt and a lesson on how trees help pollinators. Children also put together a bird's nest craft to take home and heard the story, A Tree is Nice, by Janice Udry.
