The Natural Inquirer is FREE!

However, due to recent government funding changes, we are currently only able to ship bulk orders. We hope that we will be able to resolve this issue in the near future. Our materials are still available to download for free.

The Natural Inquirer program produces free science education materials for PreK through grade 12. Natural Inquirer products are produced by the USDA Forest Service, FIND Outdoors, and other cooperators and partners.
