Be a Program Partner
Inspire Your Community
Do you enjoy sharing your love of the natural world with others? Are you excited by topics like watershed ecology, conservation, sustainable crafting, astronomy, native plants, or local wildlife?
An aim of our nature center is to educate people about nature and inspire them to protect it. We invite educators, naturalists, artists, and thoughtful practitioners to share their knowledge with our community through engaging, in-person programs.
The Setting
Programs are hosted in our historic nature center, nestled within 55 acres of protected land. Four miles of trails wind through meadows, forests, ponds, wetlands, and streams. The indoor space comfortably accommodates up to 120 attendees and is well-suited for lectures, demonstrations, and discussions.
