Julia Chambers Bio
Julia Chambers has been on a mission to educate others about protecting the earth and its habitants for most of her life! While she managed the Great Lakes Interpretive Center in the Ludington State Park she developed many programs that accomplished her goal.
During her 26 years as an elementary and art education teacher at Manistee Public Schools she wove this passion in her classes and afterschool programs. Julia owned a small landscape company for 15 years which promoted native plants and organic practices. In 1990, she co-founded the all-volunteer AFFEW (A Few Friends for the Environment of the World) with Kate Stege in order to educate and assist citizens in creating a healthier world.
She lives on a beautiful pristine lake with her husband Mark. They have 4 grown children and 3 grandkids. She loves to garden, hike, dance, and travel in her spare time!
In fall of 2022 Julia was the runner up of the national Cox Conserves Heroes Award
