Accokeek Foundation
Overview

Over the last 70 years, it has transformed into a well known non-profit organization dedicated to conservation of the natural and cultural space and environmental stewardship of the surrounding Piscataway Park. Accokeek Foundation currently runs a sustainable farm to teach people how they can apply sustainable methods to their own land. They also run an environmental education program dedicated to providing schools and visitors with the tools to become environmental stewards themselves.
