Education Programs The Lower Merion Conservancy invites you and your class to discover the nature and history of a very exciting place: your own backyard. We're a community-oriented preservation organization dedicated to protecting the natural and historic resources of Lower Merion and Narberth. We protect open space. We advocate for historic buildings. And we are leaders in environmental and preservation education. For many years, we've been best known for the Children's Earth Day Forest, one of the Philadelphia region's longest-running Earth Day events, and we've provided history walks in Rolling Hill Park for several thousands students over the last decade. In the last three years, the Conservancy has been expanding the variety of programs we offer educators like you, and the result of that expansion is this guide you now hold. Our education staff will take your students into the local environment to understand the ecology of forests, streams and fields. In our environmental programs, we'll turn your students into scientists, measuring, observing, and predicting-- and we'll actually use the data your students collect in our own ongoing ecological studies. And in our history workshops, we'll show you how waterwheel mills once worked and where they once stood in Lower Merion. Here's great series of rich programs offered very close to home. Call today to book an experience with the Lower Merion Conservancy. Mike Weilbacher Executive Director Page updated: 9/20/2006 © 2010 Lower Merion Conservancy All rights reserved.
