Important Update:

As of April 25th, our awarded AmeriCorps funding was unexpectedly terminated—impacting 14 vital AmeriCorps positions at The Nature Place. This funding supported much of our environmental education work across the community. As we adjust budgets and schedules, your donation can help us continue delivering nature-based learning for all ages. Thank you for your support.

Make a donation.

*NEW open public hours at The Nature Place effective Monday, June 2nd*
