Education

Learn about our engaging community education programs, both in and out of the classroom! Our goal is to build a sense of wonder about nature by inviting everyone to explore and appreciate wildlife, water, and the world around us.

Check out our collection of free outdoor gear, education resources, activity books, and field guides.

Our educators can assist with field trips, paddling excursions, cleanups, and invasive species removal projects.
