My name is Jessie Hoagland
and I started Green Spiral Tours
to help connect families to nature,
and people to their planet.
I have a Masters in Education for Sustainability
from Webster University,
was the Nature Educator for the Clayton Schools’
Family Center preschool starting in 2003,
and have been hosting Green Spiral field trips since 2008.

If you are an institution
looking to partner for grant funding,
know that you have found the original
family nature club in Saint Louis.
We ask for 1% of your grant funding
in exchange for real feedback
from real families.
(We partnered with the Butterfly House on their new nature trail.)

If you have a high school
or college student
who is interested in animals and nature,
we have unpaid summer internships.
The job of the intern is to
field-test and data check new maps.

Jzika, It’s Ali Shapiro, author of the Roots of Going Green. You left an Amazon review of my book. Thanks for reading, your enthusiasm and commitment to sustainability. I’m so inspired by your work. Thanks for keeping the conversation going!

I highly recommend that readers check out Ali Shapiro’s book “Roots of Going Green”. It is a thin, quick read but contains a depth of understanding. Along with a few books coming out from the Bioneers, it should be on every serious educator’s bookshelf.

Thanks

Hi Alissa! The answer is Courtois Creek near Steelville. I’ll send you an updated map and guide. Anyone else who wants to kayak, check the blog, as it was updated last week. Yes, if you live in South City, you can kayak on your drinking water! (Or beer water).
