DAEE is developing an Outdoor Learning Network to connect the places and people that create opportunities to learn and interact with nature while also benefiting wildlife. The link below will take you to a cool Story Map that gives you an idea of just what we can do in Delaware if we work together to create these spaces. We'll be looking for information from YOU soon to expand this Story Map to cover all Delaware's outdoor learning spaces.
