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.

It’s Arbor Day, y’all — time to give a tree a hug (or at least a high five if that’s more your style)!🌳💙
Here at the Edwards Aquifer Authority, protecting the Edwards Aquifer and its surrounding ecosystem is what we’re all about — and Texas native trees are a key part of ...that mission. These local legends don’t just look good — they work hard, too! They help slow down stormwater runoff, reduce erosion, and let more water soak into the ground where it can recharge the aquifer. 🌧️➡️💧
Plus, they provide cool shade, create habitats for local wildlife, and give us the oxygen we breathe. 😌🐦🌿
So today, take a minute to look up, look around, and appreciate the trees around you. Bonus points if you spot a Texas redbud (Sarah’s fave!) — because who doesn’t love a tree that shows off and supports the planet? 🌸
