About
Education program - The Conservancy's education program annually brings innovative, hands-on, science-based lessons and field trips to approximately 6,000 inner-city schoolchildren from Newark and its environs. An additional 3,000 teachers, parents, senior citizens and the general public were served with nutrition and other programs. Programming focuses on the urban environment and includes environmental education field trips to the Prudential Outdoor Learning Center in downtown Newark, in-class reverse field trips, living laboratory outdoor teaching gardens at Newark schools, nutritional health lessons and activities, and farm to school programming. Since the Prudential Outdoor Learning Center opened 15 years ago, it has hosted over 33,000 underserved children who have engaged in environmental field trips.
