We welcome over 30,000 visitors annually and 17,000 are served through children’s camp, youth and adult programs, and education center visits.

Expand your impact today by becoming a partner.

ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION

We provide learning opportunities for children and adults to learn about plants and animals native to the Piedmont area, explore the relationships among all inhabitants of the area, and the impact human activities have on the environment using methods that appeal to different learning styles.

There are multiple opportunities to sponsor a particular educational initiative. Our ability to offer these to students and families is directly related to the funds raised to support the program.

Children’s programs include children’s education through school field trips, nature camps, school field trips, and The Milkweed Project, our pollinator education and garden planting to support Monarch butterfly conservation.

Adult education opportunities to sponsor include Master Naturalist program and Free First Saturdays.

SPECIAL EVENTS & FESTIVALS

Dunwoody Nature Center’s commitment to fostering community connections come to life at our special events and festivals throughout the year. We offer family-focused and 21+ special events throughout the year to expand our impact and support the Nature Center.

Folktale Festival in March projects 1,000 attendees and connects people of all ages through the power of storytelling. Butterfly Experience in September is our most popular annual event with an expected attendance of over3,000, live butterfly encounters, education opportunities, and more!
