The Park is an ideal place for environmental education. The Environmental Discovery Center houses interactive displays that offer opportunities to learn about the wide array of plants, birds, and other wildlife to be found in the Park. Also, the EDC has displays and information on the historical importance of Palmyra Cove and the neighboring Tacony-Palmyra Bridge.

Environmental Education Programs are available to any grade level and work in conjunction with the school's curriculum to design lessons that correspond to specific sites in the Park.

Environmental Education at Palmyra Cove is:

• Hands on for children
• Standards-based
• Interdisciplinary
• Programmed for kindergarten through adult
• Personalized for each individual group

Palmyra Cove is registered with the State of New Jersey as a Professional Development Provider and has hosted workshops on Project Learning Tree, Project WET and Project WILD: Aquatic.
