At Duke Farms, we believe nature is one of the most powerful teachers. Our education team has created a series of field-tested lesson plans designed to bring environmental learning to life—both in the classroom and out on the trail.
These resources are built to support hands-on, inquiry-based exploration of topics like ecosystems, biodiversity, sustainability, and climate resilience. Whether you're preparing for a visit to Duke Farms or simply bringing the outdoors into your classroom, our lessons are crafted to inspire curiosity, critical thinking, and a lifelong connection to the natural world.
