Kids and curious adults can tune in to the Jennings Environmental Ed Center Facebook page each week for posts to help explore the outside world around your home.

Each week, the center will feature activities to help investigate, create, and share explorations of nature in your neighborhood.

The Facebook posts will lead investigations into the mysteries of nature and contribute to science from home.
