"Stewards of the Land: Farming for Water Quality in the Champlain Basin" is an exciting opportunity for educators of grades 4-8 in New York, Vermont, and Quebec to learn more about Lake Champlain. This workshop, sponsored by the Champlain Basin Educators Initiative (CBEI), will be held on April 30 from 8:30 to 15:30 at Shelburne Farms.
