Welcome to Alder Creek Children's Forest! ACCF is a 78-acre forest in southern Douglas County in Oregon, surrounded by the 2500-acre Alder Creek-Jordan Creek catchment. (Here's a neat panoramic view of the watershed, taken from Canyon Mountain.) ACCF is also a nonprofit that coordinates learning activites on the forest and watershed. ACCF has developed this website so more students can benefit from our forest and watershed. Make sure to tell your teachers to check it out too.

Where are you from? What watershed do you live in? Introduce yourself in our Guest Forum: all you have to do is register in ACCF Moodle, our online learning system, then you can meet others who've checked in online. Stay tuned to ACCF Moodle as our online learning activities expand.

One fun thing you can do right now is take a forest quiz on the Moodle site. Or, how would you like to take a virtual tour of ACCF? You get to fly around in a balloon, touch down on a site of your choosing, and search the site for treasure hunt items! Think you can score all 100 points? If your class visits the ACCF site, you can contribute your thoughts in Moodle, or if you take pictures they can be featured in the upper-right corner of our webpages or on the Forest Quiz! Contact us for more details.

And if you have any good ideas for improving ACCF's online learning resources, just post a note in our Guest Forum. Thanks, and come back soon—we always have new things do do here.
