To assist youth and families in completing environmental stewardship projects at home, YEPS has created several self-directed project books. All books include information about the project, directions on how to complete the project, and also reporting sheets that, if completed, allow youth to earn "YEPS Hours" which are redeemable for YEPS rewards.
In addition to this web site, YEPS Self-Directed Project Books are also available free of charge from the Sauk County UW-Extension Office and the Sauk County Land Conservation Department.
