Muddy Sneakers is an environmental education program that aims to awaken a deep connection with the natural world in 5th-grade public school students. Their mission is to inspire curiosity, stimulate learning, and enhance classroom performance by providing outdoor science education. Through experiential education in a natural setting, students not only improve their science skills but also become more active and gain self-confidence.

Muddy Sneakers serves an ever-increasing number of 5th-grade students from public schools in the Western and Piedmont regions of North Carolina, with plans to expand further. They rely on the generosity of individuals, businesses, and philanthropic organizations to support their impactful work. With over 15 years of experience, Muddy Sneakers has brought field-based, experiential teaching methods to public schools across North Carolina.
