Education

Greater Newark Conservancy offers hands-on, inquiry-based environmentally-themed programs. The Conservancy’s professional staff is a partner in educating your students.

Our programs increase student enthusiasm, comprehension, and retention of key concepts across your school’s curriculum. Whether you visit us at the Conservancy’s Judith L. Shipley Urban Environmental Center, at one of our urban farms, or schedule one of our Reverse Field Trips to your classroom, we will work with you to meet your classroom needs.
