Chattahoochee Nature Center, Inc.

ABOUT CHATTAHOOCHEE NATURE CENTER

Along a bend in the Chattahoochee River, a few miles north of I-285, historic native American foot trails run across wooded hillsides, swallowtail butterflies dance in sunny spots and yellow-bellied turtles climb onto the river’s banks.

This picturesque place and environmentally important watershed would not be possible without donors like you. Your donations help us preserve this land that is so important to our health and the health of our community.

Our mission is to connect people with nature. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we rely on the generosity of individuals, corporations, and foundations to help fund our operating budget that allows us to do our important mission work.  

1. Deliver best-in-class environmental education programs to 45,000 school children each year, with nearly 35% of them coming from Title I school communities where exposure and access to nature are limited. 
2. Provide 10,000 pounds of fresh produce annually from our quarter-acre STEM teaching farm to a local food pantry that serves over 250 food-insecure families each day. 
3. Care for over 100 non-releasable native Georgia wildlife residents and over 700 injured wildlife rehab patients each year. 
4. Preserve 127 acres of wildlife habitat along the Chattahoochee River.
5. Provide a safe place for visitors of all ages and abilities to get outdoors and connect to nature.
