Education
Awareness and education
Public education and awareness is one of our objectives at NERD. Promoting awareness and conservation of habitat and species matters to us, and we offer educational lectures in our area to schools, scout groups, churches and universities.
Up-close encounters change how people see the natural world. NERD's lectures and animal encounters let people meet animals they might never see in person. To book NERD for an educational experience, call (603) 382-3338. NERD's own line is (603) 382-2772.
