MWCA continues to uphold the original mandate to provide environmental education—an integral part of its purpose. Qualified staff guide campers and students in exploring and learning about wildlife and plant communities so they can better understand and respect our natural world.

Environmental Education Director Jeanne Coleman came to the Woodlands in 1995 after completing her Masters degree in Outdoor Education. She has worked in this field since 1986, also for such notable groups as the National Park Service, The Nature Conservancy, The Sierra Club, and the U.S. Forest Service.

In addition to an on-site Nature Center, herbarium and Resource Library, MWCA offers the following programs:
Residential Outdoor Science School (ROSS)
Service Learning
Fall Weekend Workshops
Field Trips
