Community Education
You can’t spell G.R.E.E.N. without Environmental Education. Sharing information and passion with others is at the heart of what we do. But we need help to connect with our large and diverse community. There are many ways to get involved with our educational efforts – you don’t need to be an expert or a teacher. Contact us at info@thewoodlandsgreen.org for opportunities to make a difference.
