In 2024, Okanogan Conservation District's Youth Education Program leader Emily and her team made a tremendous impact, serving 3,364 youth across Okanogan County!
Through PreK-12 lessons, field exploration days, kids’ camps, and school garden support, the program reached schools, community groups, and libraries countywide.
From preparing students for the regional Envirothon competition to hosting teacher trainings and supporting eight thriving school gardens, the impacts of this program are far-reaching and inspiring.
A heartfelt thank you to Okanogan Conservation District for motivating the next generation of conservationists!
