Outdoor Youth Education

In adddition to its on-farm workshop series and publications for landowners & farmers, the RCD is involved with providing outdoor, hands-on learning opportunities for youth of all ages. 

Whether it is a one-day event, such as Cache Creek Discovery Day, or a custom-designed series of field trips that meet the state's curriculum standards for earth and life sciences as in the STREAM and PAINT programs listed below, YCRCD staff and Education Coordinator, Diane Crumley can assist your organization in developing an outdoor classroom experience in watershed ecology that is appropriate for your setting and age-group.
