It feels appropriate in our 150th episode to introduce the Forest Educator Initiative.  In the past year and a half I have been discovering areas of nature education advocacy and professional support that could use some development and attention.

It's never easy being a pioneer, and 'field testing' the next generation of nature based education for children and teens and adults around the world, especially when we are reliant on our program funding for our sustenance.   Program models, program design, professional networking and of course, effectiveness in outcome delivery are all areas that could use some energy and focus.

It's an exciting time for nature education, and I think we are on the cusp of some major growth if we can get this current 'stage' right!

Thanks for being part of this journey and doing the much needed work you're all doing every day.  I appreciate you!
