Environmental Education
Lower Muskingum Conservancy puts on a variety of educational programs covering topics including ground water protection, aquatic ecosystems, aquatic macroinvertebrates, water cycle, soil and erosion and water quality monitoring.

Many of our educational programs can be tied to Ohio Academic Standards.
