Discover Virginia

A Natural History Retreat

The Wintergreen Nature Foundation believes that understanding the landforms and life forms of the Commonwealth are the first steps toward wise stewardship and conservation. To this end we will have Discover Virginia on August 3 - 5, 2007 to bring together field scientists, outdoor enthusiasts and teachers in a classroom with breathtaking scenery and undisturbed natural gardens. Special sessions for teachers will offer techniques that will revitalize the classroom experience for students.

Take advantage of this rare opportunity to spend an entire weekend studying natural history with Virginia's finest scientists and instructors. Escape the humidity of August by experiencing nature in a canopied forest classroom atop the Blue Ridge Mountains . This will be an event not to be missed by all lovers of nature and conservation.
