Get Ready for MNECO Winter 2026 Gathering!
Join us in person for the MNECO Winter 2026 Gathering, where the vibe is all about connection and fun. It's the perfect chance to meet up with nature-based educators, share ideas, and enjoy some great company. Donβt miss out on this awesome winter meetup β mark your calendar and get ready to join in sessions around bringing nature indoors, an intro for new nature connections and learning about new licensing guidelines for childcare and family centers. We'll end the day touring The Friends School nature play areas before heading over to Nature Pathways Early Learning Center, a new farm- and nature-based program opening on the former Childrenβs Country Day School property, co-owned by Anna Dutke.
