AEEA Networking
Bringing People Together, Sharing Ideas, Building a Network.
Networking is a key part of why people are involved in professional organizations. Individuals come together to share ideas and tools of the trade with like-minded experts from all over Arkansas. The diverse backgrounds of educators and broad spectrum of topics makes the networking component of AEEA so important. Environmental educators are life-long learners eager to share with others.
AEEA hosts networking events multiple times a year, including Dine & Discover events, virtual community calls, and the networking evening at the EE Expo. AEEA continues to promote collaboration and outreach among our members and the community at large. Keep an eye on our events calendar for the next opportunity to collaborate.
Dine & Discover Series
Dine & Discover at Wildland Gardens
October 17, 2026
12:00 – 2:00 pm
Join us for a casual gathering of good food, community, and learning. Dine and Discover brings together AEEA members and anyone curious about environmental education and organic gardening for a relaxed gathering at Wildland Gardens.
We’ll share a lunch featuring some produce sourced from the garden and take a guided tour through the food, flower, herb, and pollinator gardens. Attendees will also learn more about AEEA and our work, and have plenty of time to connect with fellow educators, gardeners, and community members over shared interests.
Registration is required to help with planning. This event is free for AEEA members. Members of the general public are welcome to attend for a small fee to help cover costs.
