Poquoson: Just For Fun

Busy Bee Box offers sensory boxes, play dough kits, and learning kits for toddlers, preschool, and beyond!

The Virginia Cooperative Extension York County/Poquoson Master Gardeners established the Poquoson Learning Garden in 2013. It is a "sunny" garden that compliments the York Learning Garden and Arboretum, a predominately "shade" garden. It is composed of individual raised bed gardens for vegetables, herbs, cut flowers and perennials. The adaptive Gardening sections includes a variety of ideas for wheelchair or limited mobility gardeners or those with space limitations or constraints. The garden includes a large outdoor classroom and is a great place for learning about sustainable gardening practices that can be introduced into home landscapes and garden.
