Garden Detectives

What lurks at the bottom of your garden ? Delve into hedges, take a peek in our shed and unearth wonders from our flower beds and pond. Explore habitats, study food chains, track animals and discover what they get up to while you’re asleep! Inspired by the work of Charles Darwin on his 200th birthday, Squelch turns the ordinary into the extraordinary. Take a larger-than-life look at plants and flowers, learn fascinating facts about nature and experience all the sounds and smells of a real garden without getting your hands dirty. With interactive exhibits and real live specimens, this is your chance to be a natural detective. Take home new skills and investigate your own garden or local environment. Darwin200 is a national programme of events celebrating Charles Darwin’s scientific ideas and their impact on society.
