Nature Explorers Homeschool Program is an environmental education program designed for home-schooling families which offers a unique, nature-based educational experience. Classes incorporate hands-on science with nature and environmental awareness, and each concludes with a nature hike.
Classes meet on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month for 4 months, from 10:00 to 11:00 am (we’re adding a second Monday option this fall). Two sessions are offered each year: March – May and September – November. Each of the eight classes offered during each session will focus on a different topic.
