I was just talking to Jim McGrath, director of the Green Charter Schools Network, and he explained that the 2011 National Green Schools Conference has just been pushed forward to early 2012 in Denver: February 27, 28, and 29. I’ll post more details when they get worked out, but the Network’s website should also be a good place to get details in the weeks ahead: http://www.greencharterschools.org.

As we gushed in the last post, the last conference was an incredibly rich source of green and inspirational ideas. It was also fun to share the EverGreen Twins with enthusiastic folks from around the U.S. and Canada, and we can’t wait until next year when we will have another new book which teaches ecology and sustainability to kids, this one focused on early learners who can’t yet read the original book. We’re also working on a teacher and parent guide to accompany the original activity book with 40+ Eco-Activities, Games, and Outdoor Activities which should be ready long before then.

Late-breaking News! The conference website was just updated with details about the conference. Click here for the latest and greatest information.

I hope to see you there!
