Jane Jackson

Jane Jackson is an educator at heart, and her love of nature is infectious. She has spent time at  The Nature Conservancy and the New York Restoration Project. More recently she founded and administers the North Shore Land Alliance’s Walk in the Woods and Other Cool Things to Do Outside programs. Jackson also designed and teaches the Long Island Water Education Program, with its focus on the sole source aquifer that is the area’s drinking-water source. Additionally, she has spearheaded Earth Day celebrations, introducing underserved youth to a 70-acre preserve near their homes, by planting trees and revitalizing the area after Hurricane Sandy.
