The Youth Activities Committee of Fort Bend County Master Gardeners is offering a day-long camp for members of Scouting America to earn their Plant Science Merit Badge.

The camp will meet from 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, April 26, at the Fort Bend Office Educational Center, 1440 Band Road in Rosenberg.

Register at https://fbmg.org/…/plant-science-merit-badge-for-bsa…/

Registration is $20, which includes lunch, for the third annual event.

Scouts will explore three plant science specialties: Agronomy, horticulture, and field botany. They will, for example, draw and identify five or more parts of a flowering plant and tell what each part does. They will explain photosynthesis and why it’s important. Other topics include bees, soil and how people depend upon plants.
