Kingsbury Environmental Institute

The Kingsbury Environmental Institute's mission is to enhance and support community understanding and appreciation of the environment through education, research, and active involvement in stewardship.

We sponsor a multi-part Environmental Lecture series annually. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend these free informative programs co-sponsored by the Four County Community Foundation. All are family-friendly presentations with a goal of imparting knowledge, understanding and appreciation of our eco-system, our earth and its amazing creatures as well as thinking and acting "green."

Environmental Lecture Series

Watch for our exciting 2009-10 Offerings. More information will be posted soon.
