Oregon's working lands, wild places, open spaces, communities, people, and businesses all depend on each other. The next generation needs the skills, knowledge, attitudes, motivations, and commitment to work individually and collectively to ensure Oregon continues to have a vibrant future. We believe environmental education is the key to that future. We support our teachers, administrators, resource professionals, nature centers, environmental educators, and volunteers who are in the trenches - getting kids & adults outside, teaching teachers, training staff, working with schools, working with families, teaching adults, doing environmental education - everything and anything that cultivates environmental literacy and environmental justice. We are your resource in working with others around environmental education.

cultivating environmental literacy and engagment among diverse community leaders

We are a membership-based organization that supports environmental educators, outdoor educators, social justice teachers, nature guides, program administrators, and anyone that values the power of learning about place, communities, and our relationship with each.
