Students learning about marine life          For over five decades, the Environmental Education program at Bradford Woods has worked with young students and teachers throughout Indiana, providing hands-on experiences that encourage students to learn in, and about, the outdoors.  Our goal is to enhance participants’ personal relationship with their environment by increasing knowledge and awareness of environmental processes and relationships, heightening awareness of historical and cultural influences, and promoting stewardship through educated decision making.

Whether writing a poem about a soaring Bald Eagle, collecting aquatic insects for a biotic index, or listening to Native American legends while gazing into a starry night sky, students see their learning come alive.
