FREE! Science Education Enrichment Day (SEED) is a family-themed festival celebrating science, technology, engineering, and math. The SEED STEM Festival is celebrating its 40th annual event! Imagine getting up close with honeybees, petting an alligator, learning how to make a rain garden, investigating a carnivorous plant, driving a championship robot, or virtually traveling through outer space. Guests will be able to do just that at the 40th annual SEED STEM Festival. The event will celebrate innovations in the areas of STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics). Student groups, regional corporations, museums, professional organizations, government agencies, educators, and national labs will join forces to create and present engaging hands-on activities for guests of all ages.
