Testimonials
Marty Giles was marvelous in leading many of our nature classes… She has a vast knowledge of ecology, environment, and plant and animal species. Her ability to ‘go’ with whatever nature presented on our walks at a given moment is extraordinary. …Marty’s enthusiasm for her work and varied presentation techniques of learning endeared her to our groups and enhanced our knowledge and our enjoyment. She was obviously well organized and well prepared.
