We are celebrating another incredible year partnering with The Breakers’ grounds team through their VTO (Volunteer Time Off) Program, and our property has never looked better! Due to their dedicated hard work, their amazing volunteer teams tackled a massive checklist to revitalize our outdoor spaces, including:

- Restoring walking and hiking trails.
- Cleaning up around our wetland and pond areas.
- Beautifying our interactive gardens, community spaces, and main arrival areas.
- Conducting vital property-wide cleanup.

To every volunteer who participated: thank you for your incredible work ethic, dedication, and community spirit. You have made a lasting difference that our visitors and students will enjoy for months to come!

We had a fantastic time connecting with our local community recently while tabling at the REI stores in Palm Beach Gardens and Boca Raton!

It was a wonderful opportunity to share the impactful work being done through FAU Pine Jog’s partnership with REI and Sol Systems. We loved engaging with outdoor enthusiasts to highlight our REI-sponsored H2O to Go! and Climate READY programs, while showcasing our beautiful trails and diverse community programming.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to chat, ask questions, and share their passion for environmental education. Strong partnerships make our mission possible!

A huge thank you to our FAU administration, community leaders, educational leaders, environmental advocates, and local partners who recently brought their expertise and passion to our 2026 FAU Pine Jog Master Planning Session. Our goal is to develop and cultivate a premier, sustainable destination for our community that integrates nature, education, and innovation. The insights shared during this meeting will be the groundwork for refining our roadmap and developing this community-centered vision. Stay tuned as we continue to grow!

Our Nature Playscape is now OPEN!

We would like to thank Ethan Campbell and Troop 13 for their efforts in upgrading the musical elements in our nature playscape. We appreciate all scouts who choose to include Pine Jog on their journey to making Eagle Rank. Through Ethan's hard work and determination, we now have more lovely sounds to listen to in our forest!

FAU Pine Jog is proud to share the results of a two-year creative partnership with Emmy-winning producer & author, Jill Ross Nadler. The incredible collaboration between Jill and our Pine Jog staff has resulted in the development of The FLoW Show children's book and a separate animated video, bringing the story of Florida's water and its challenges to life!

By combining Nadler’s expertise in STEAM storytelling with Pine Jogs' environmental education and scientific knowledge, we are transforming how younger students understand our local ecosystems. Wonderful illustrations were created by Isabella Quickdraw! Funding for the FloW Show development was made possible through a merit grant from PBC Impact 100. The FLoW show book is now available on Amazon!

H2O to Go! Connections: Investigate Florida’s water systems

South Florida’s water systems are complex, fragile, and vital. The H2O to Go! Connections program offers a rigorous, hands-on look at the interconnectedness of these systems through the lens of modern environmental research.

Selected students will stay at the FAU John D. MacArthur Campus and travel to premier research sites to study hydrological modeling and ecosystem management. If you are passionate about engineering, marine biology, or research, this is your next step.

Program Session: July 27-31, 2026.

Applications are available NOW! www.pinejog.fau.edu

We are excited to kick off a new cohort of Teaching Empathy through Nature!

Please join us in welcoming our latest Graduate Teaching Assistant, Antonette Keene, a master’s student who has been instrumental in our Empathy classroom delivery this year. Literature is an integral part of the Teaching Empathy In Nature framework. By immersing students in curated stories, we encourage them to adopt diverse perspectives and develop a respectful, empathetic relationship with the natural world.

From the lab to the forest!. A recent FAU SEED (Science, Ecology & Experimental Discovery) field trip saw students visiting our Native Orchid Lab to help transition lab-grown orchids into a greenhouse setting. The best part? Each student headed home with their very own "Orkit"—a native Florida orchid and care kit to help bring nature back to their own backyards.

We are so grateful for the ongoing appreciation and support from Prime Time Palm Beach County Inc. Their partnership helps us turn students into conservationists, one orchid at a time! Prime Time Palm Beach County, The School District of Palm Beach County FAU College of Education
