Forest Ecology Research Network
Explore the wonders of Maine forests with FERN! This experiential field-based program for students, conservation organizations, and landowners combines place-based environmental education methodology with standard forest data collection protocols. FERN empowers community scientists to answer their burning questions about the Maine Woods.
Project Learning Tree
PLT, an initiative of the Sustainable Forestry Initiative, is an award-winning environmental education program and standards-aligned curriculum.
As the state sponsor of PLT, Maine TREE engages a network of teachers, informal educators, parents, and community leaders throughout the state to “teach students how to think, not what to think.”
