The Buttinger Nature Center is part of the Association's beautiful 585-acre Reserve. Here, many educational programs can be enjoyed by both individuals and groups. Family programs and activities are wide-ranging and can include workshops, bird watching, hiking the Center's 8 miles of trails, tracking, orienteering, maple sugaring, canoeing, and much, much more. Membership, while not required, brings an informative quarterly newsletter announcing upcoming activities. Educators can take workshops to enhance environmental teaching techniques.
Individual students can enjoy wholesome after school-activities.
The Association runs a summer camp, too, as well as many summertime family activities, classes, and field trips. School Groups can choose from a wide selection of interactive programs for all grade levels. Programs last from 90 minutes to 3 hours. Many others are available, including programs that can be delivered at school. The Demonstration Organic Farm illustrates farming techniques that work with nature.
