The Edwards Aquifer is more than a water source — it’s a living story that connects our past, present and future. It’s the reason settlers came to this area, and it’s the lifeblood of our growth. Our aquifer is a resource we can study and learn from. It’s an incredible wonder, and it’s why we’re here.
Dive into deeper discovery through education.
There’s so much to explore at the EAA Education Outreach Center. We’ve got a hub of interactive exhibits and hands-on activities designed to inspire a deeper connection to the water that sustains our region.
