Inspiring Kids Preserve
We are currently designing 100 acres on Henderson Inlet on Puget Sound to create a special preserve, where kids can learn and play.
We have teamed up with the Puget Sound Estuarium and the North Thurston School District to get 3rd graders to the Inspiring Kids Preserve as a part of their science curriculum. Students learn about local habitats, conservation, and more. Learn more!
Shelton FieldSTEM® Initiative at Bayshore Preserve
We have teamed up with Pacific Education Institute and the Shelton School District to get 7th graders out to our Bayshore Preserve as part of their science curriculum. Students learn about macro invertebrates, stream flow, and salt marsh habitats. Learn more!
Thank you to the Community Foundation of South Puget Sound, the Russell Family Foundation, and The Butler Foundation for their support of these programs.
