Outdoor Learning Spaces
Nature truly is everywhere, and because we are interdependent, we know that Baltimore is essential to resolving the ecological crises we face as a country. Forest School “classrooms" must be maintained as safe and educational environments, which means ongoing investment by the church, neighborhood partners and funding/program partners.
Forest Stewardship
Every week, we take care of the forest and the surrounding environment. We perform trail maintenance, trash collection, tree and herbaceous inventory, tool demonstration and safe handling, all extending the lanes of learning.
