Service Learning
Student, faculty, & community groups are welcome to practice service learning through different projects and dialogue around trail building, ecological restoration, and gardening.

Spend a day or overnight learning alongside fellow educators, engaging in experiential education practices, and tangibly connecting classroom learning to outside spaces.
