I am currently launching my second nonprofit that is focused on expanding access to nature-based early education.  We are located in Boston and provide nature preschool, forest days for public schools, and consulting services to educators interested in launching nature-based early ed programs in the USA or abroad.  I'd love to connect! 

I'm a Restoration Project Manager with Point Blue Conservation Science's STRAW program (Students and Teachers Restoring a Watershed).

Lindsey Kirkland (she/her) is an environmental education leader, facilitator, and program manager dedicated to connecting people, ideas, and action. Most recently at Climate Generation, she designed and led professional learning experiences for a national network of educators, creating spaces where collaboration, curiosity, and community drive meaningful impact. With a background in environmental research, climate education, coalition-building, and program strategy, Lindsey brings people together across organizations to strengthen practice and advance collective goals. She believes learning is most powerful when it is participatory, grounded in real-world contexts and research, and rooted in care for both people and place.
