The Institute works with its partners to provide educational programs
that expand the knowledge of conservation stewardship and strengthen
citizenship skills.
"This course has rekindled my soul and passion for teaching. It has made it meaningful
again. I am so grateful for the vision, the inspiration, the follow through and the commitment and knowledge
that the partners have channeled through us.
"

Brattleboro, Vermont
"Students need knowledge and awarenessbut
they also need to actively participate. In the forests and communities
of our own backyards, all the issues of sustainability and stewardship
can be illustrated and become real for students." -
Megan Camp, vice president of Shelburne Farms
