Parks and Conservation Areas
Parks and conservation areas offer a 'do it yourself' option for environmental education field trips. Since most do not provide educational programming, you have the opportunity to customize your trip according to the interests, strengths, and needs of your class and what you wish your students to learn. If you are unsure as to how to plan your own environmental education trip, I have provided some programming ideas and resources to get you started.
