Education resources

CoSEE at the EERC works to support communities where experience drives learning and stewardship takes root. We are fortunate to be located in a vibrant community surrounded by a vast, interconnected network of forests and parks, providing refuge for both people and wildlife. This incredible setting allows us to offer place-based environmental education activities within the EERC, at the park, and beyond.

We are proud to provide a range of educational materials to encourage scientific knowledge and inquiry, all free of charge. Our offerings are continually expanding, so be sure to check back or sign up for our newsletter to stay updated on new additions.
