Volunteers help educate Carleton and the community on pet care, spaying and neutering, and owner responsibility. Kids For Conservation Weekly Commitment Community KFC was initiated to give Northfield elementary school children the knowledge about environmental issues that they will need in these rapidly changing times. Lesson plans are designed by some of the volunteers and are taught in teams of four. The teams return to the same classrooms once a week and lead a one-hour fun and interactive lesson on environmentalism. The Nature Preserve is 36 acres of land near Cannon Falls dedicated to family-based interactive environmental and outdoor education.
Volunteers lead nature hikes, play with children, direct visitors, etc.
