One of our primary goals is to provide educational opportunities and information related to conservation and environmental education. Many of our lessons can be connected to the Next Generation Science Standards. In addition to the education kits mentioned here, we have files of other conservation activities that we can help develop into a program for your needs.
Water theme education kits include: All the Water in the World, Blue Bead, Incredible Journey, The Long Haul and What's In Your Water.
Soil themes include Soil Olympics and Edible Soil Profile. Other Conservation topics include Luscious Layered Landfill, Landscape Scene Investigators and many more.
Education programs include use of the stream trailer, the earth balloon and the enviroscape model. Call our office for more information.
