Education Programs
Environmental education is at the core of everything we do.
We work with students and educators in the Southeastern U.S. to create an immersive education experience, whether that means bringing the field to the classroom or the classroom to the field. Our programs deepen the connection between our own daily lives and the health of our environment.
Featured Programs :
Enterprise South Field Trips
Experience an immersive outdoor education experience at Enterprise South Nature Park. All of our trips include hands-on learning with plenty of time to explore the natural world.
