MCIU’s Environmental Mobile Unit (EMU) made an exciting stop at our Discovery Center horticulture lab, giving students in our Transition Program the chance to embrace the power of outdoor learning! EMU facilitator and instructor Leigh Kieser guided students in observing and documenting the natural world, introduced them to fascinating biological specimens, and led hands-on activities like collecting and analyzing soil samples from the Discovery Center grounds. A big thank you to the EMU team for delivering such a fun and educational experience!
