Marion County teachers dug into learning at STEM in the Garden, enjoying three energizing main sessions and two hands-on breakout sessions—all while earning CEUs for professional development! Twenty of our educators had the chance to step outside the classroom and into new experiences. We’re grateful for our strong partnership with Live Well Alabama and Marion County Extension for making outreach events like this possible for our schools!
Thank you, Northwest RC&D, NRCS, Marion County Extension, Live Well Alabama, Factory Falls Apiary, and the Marion County Commission for investing in the education of our students for a more sustainable future.
