Our Programs

At CNC, our classroom is more than 1,600 acres of protected eastern deciduous forest, fields, streams, ponds and wetlands. Our programs combine experiential education with hands-on learning. We strive to offer an interdisciplinary approach to learning by incorporating ecology, natural history, science, social studies, and stewardship into our programs. Our activities and events offer ways for people to reconnect with the natural world and empower them with opportunities to contribute to a sustainable future.
