Education

Take a peek at the education of natural resources we provide at Kropscott Farm Environmental Center!

Fremont Area Community Foundation remains our largest funding source for the Kropscott Farm Environmental Center (KFEC) education program. Their support is a key partnership in our sustainability plan to continue the mission of KFEC. If you have enjoyed a day of education out at the farm or throughout Newaygo County, please continue to share with Newaygo Conservation District, owner and operator of KFEC, your letters of support. We kindly ask you email them to [email protected] by February 1st of every year. Each individual plays a vital role in the continuation of KFEC's education for today and tomorrow!

A special thank you to The Gerber Foundation for supporting our Summer Daytime Science Youth Retreat! Est. July 21, 2025.
