Botanic GardenWHAT WAS IT? Plant Power (also known as Fascination in Plants Day) takes place annually at Dundee Botanic Garden. Plant Sciences and James Hutton Institute run a plant science strand which involves a number of interactive hands-on activities. This takes place alongside the other events organised by the Botanic Garden.
KEY OUTCOMES:Provide an opportunity for staff and students to develop activities based on their research and improve their public engagement skills. Enhance partnership working between Plant Sciences, James Hutton Institute and Dundee Botanic Garden.
FUTURE PLANS:With the new Dundee Botanic Garden Curator now in post, this will allow for the event to evolve with a fresh perspective and ideas. The activities developed for the event will be made into box activities that other people can borrow.
