Environmental Education of New Mexico
Grants Awarded
In 2025, Environmental Education of New Mexico (EENM) recruited professionals and initiated development of outdoor learning projects in collaboration with local nonprofits and schools across urban and rural New Mexico. Funded by the Lineberry Foundation, the program involves a range of activities including botany workshops, farming lessons, and outdoor camps aiming to improve youth's understanding of environmental processes, their interest in outdoor activities, and their commitment to nature stewardship. EENM is now seeking additional funds from the Outdoor Equity Fund for youth participation in these projects and to cover the coordinator's costs.
Environmental Education of New Mexico (EENM) has served the state for 30 years as a hub for educators, nonprofit leaders, and government agencies committed to advancing outdoor learning. We believe every New Mexican deserves access to high-quality, engaging, and meaningful outdoor and environmental education. This access supports a thriving future where environmental and social responsibility guide both individual and institutional decisions. To realize this vision, EENM supports educators and organizations that connect youth with the outdoors while also advocating at the state level for the importance of outdoor learning.
