About the Environmental Education COI
The Puyallup watershed is made up of different ecosystems, each of which has its lessons to teach and secrets to uncover.
Through our efforts toward the understanding and appreciation of our unique natural environment, along with the values of stewardship, equity and empowerment, we are working together to improve and expand the role of environmental education. It is through continued cooperation and coordinated action that we will all be able to make a difference and become the change that we are hoping to achieve.
