Thurston County Eco-Network (Eco-Net) is a South Sound collaboration network for environmental educators, designed to connect, support, and amplify their work. By providing professional development, resource sharing, and opportunities for collaboration, Eco‐Net helps educators strengthen their programs, expand their reach, and increase their impact in local communities. The network fosters partnerships, highlights innovative projects, and builds a stronger, more visible environmental education community, empowering educators to inspire action and stewardship for both people and the natural world.

Eco‐Net envisions growing into a vibrant movement that uplifts environmental educators and their communities across the South Sound. The network aims to provide resources, professional development, networking opportunities, workshops, yearly conferences, and demographic mapping available to both educators and the public. By offering communications tools that highlight the amazing people and projects in the region, matching and training volunteers, and serving as a trusted voice for environmental education, Eco‐Net will foster connection, collaboration, and inspiration. More than just a network, Eco‐Net aspires to spark a revolution in how environmental education is valued and supported, showing that anything is possible when we work together to empower educators, engage communities, and protect the natural world.
