Begin with the "bog fantasy" and travel through time from the top of a glacier 18,000 years ago into the present time as the bog forms beneath you. Meet Peater Pitcher Plant (a puppet) and look at the 2,000 year old Bog Man, who still has a 5 o'clock shadow! Play "carnivorous charades" and walk where the quaking sphagnum peat floats on water. Through these activities and more this workshop introduces the fascinating and bizarre world of the bog and the incredible survival adaptations of the plants and animals living there, including insect-eating pitcher plants and sundews. Survival in the extreme conditions of the bog is something to be ad-'mired'. Learn what makes a bog a bog, and how to capture bog methane to create a torch. This workshop is a lot of pun, and you'll come away from it wanting "moor."
