School Groups
Whitemarsh Foundation recognizes that the future of open space preservation and stewardship begins with today’s students.
We partner with local schools to host hundreds of students each year at the 14-acre Dixon Meadow Preserve and BLBB Education Pavilion. We work directly with teachers to ensure each school group’s education experience with the Foundation is aligned with their class curricula, and entertaining and engaging for their students.
