The Environmental Nature Center (ENC) inspires people of all ages to connect with nature through hands-on environmental education and transformational outdoor experiences. Our campus showcases native plants from many of California’s diverse plant communities, creating living classrooms where visitors can explore the state’s remarkable biodiversity.
Each year, thousands of students and families participate in field trips, camps, and community programs that foster curiosity, scientific thinking, and environmental stewardship. The ENC also models sustainable living through initiatives like our LEED Platinum green buildings and TRUE Platinum Zero Waste practices.
Your support helps care for these living learning spaces, provide scholarships for underserved students, and empower our community to live more lightly on the planet.
