Café Sci
Café Sci removes science from the lecture hall into a cozy, fireside discussion. The goal is to engage the public in science in a non-traditional way. At Café Scientifique, a scientist introduces a current, science-related topic and then opens the floor for discussion. Café Scientifique is held once a month, usually on the 4th Thursday of the month, from 7-9 p.m.

Edible Landscape Garden (ELG) Pavilion

The design of the Pavilion, a wooden structure with limestone columns, carries the overall architectural theme of the education campus into the gardens. An arbor and gate at the entrance, and brick pathway lead visitors into the ELG and provide an attractive first glimpse of the Pavilion and the surrounding plantings. The ELG is a seasonal garden that changes dramatically over the course of a year. Highlights of this location are the thousands of bulbs that bloom in early spring, the design and color schemes of the arched beds in mid to late summer, the espaliered apple Belgian fence and the colorful annuals spilling from the hanging baskets and pots that surround the Pavilion.

This location includes 6 wooden benches that seat up to 24 people and will hold up to 80+ people standing.   The Pavilion has power and water. This location has the option to rent chairs.  Please see the Chair Rental Agreement for details.

The price for reserving the ELG is $500.00 for a 2-hour period and also includes a rehearsal date.  Please see the General Guidelines for more information and guidelines.
