Identifying crops and weeds (Age: 6-18)

The objective of the present lab is the familiarization of kids with important crops of Greece (cereals, legumes, oil crops etc). Moreover, we will learn to identify some common weeds and to find ways to characterize them as wanted (eg edible) or harmful (eg poisonοus). Plant and seed samples will be available to the audience to observe and examine in details.
