WINSLOW — The Maine TREE Foundation has received a $3,000 grant from Georgia-Pacific supporting the Maine Project Learning Tree program. PLT is an environmental education program for teachers and other educators working with children in all secondary grades.
The program provides lessons and activities to make students aware of their place in the environment, their impact on it and responsibilities. PLT uses the forest as a window to the natural world and provides workshops and programs for teachers, foresters, park and nature center staff, and youth group leaders.
The Maine TREE Foundation develops and sponsors programs that incrase public understanding of the more than 17 million acres of Maine’s forests.
