Project Learning Tree is a nationally recognized activity guide that provides educators with tools for increasing student environmental awareness. Whether you are a formal educator, 4-H leader, Scout leader, or home school instructor, Project Learning Tree activities will engage your students in interdisciplinary, hands-on experiences that develop skills in problem solving, critical thinking, evaluation, and research.

Project Learning Tree Workshops are available year-round for educators, scout leaders, home school leaders, and anyone else interested in the environment. Free in-service workshops are available for schools. For more information or to schedule a workshop, please call (732) 833-9816 or email Elizabeth.Faircloth@dep.state.nj.us.
