Hi there, thank you for stopping by! My name is Dr. Maria Wheeler-Dubas, and I am an educator, writer, and life-long learner based in Pittsburgh, PA. I am the founder of Backyard Nature, a non-profit organization focused on sparking wonder for nature and science, creating accessible and inclusive outdoor learning experiences, and supporting meaningful climate action. How can we help you, your family, or your organization meet your own learning goals and interests? Check out our Learning Adventures page and Blog to find out more! And if you would like to help support nature education for all, you can donate here!
