Schools and Youth

Looking for a fun and inspiring experience in sustainability and ecological living for youth?

The Ecovillage Institute offers hands-on environmental educational programs, teaching practical ways to make a difference.

This is an opportunity for school and community groups to learn about sustainable living, green energy, the ecological footprint, and to participate in the process of creating an ecological village in a fun and experiential way.  

The Ecovillage institute uses an integration of hands-on projects, murals and collaborative art activities, team building, leadership and communication exercises, and interactive games to engage and teach students about the local and global ecosystems in a fun experiential way.

School groups can visit for full or half-day programs or the Ecovillage Institute team can come directly to the schools.   All of the programs can be custom designed to integrate with curriculum and group interests.
