About:
Darien Nature Center https://dariennaturecenter.org/ The Darien Nature Center envisions a community that is deeply connected to nature and inspired to take action to preserve and protect it. We inspire passion and respect for the natural world through nature education, hands-on experiences with nature, and environmental action and stewardship. Thanks to the support of the Board of Selectmen and families throughout town, the Darien Nature Center opened the doors to its new building, a beautiful, light-filled barn, in February of 2002. Today, a quarter of a century after its inception, the Darien Nature Center is a thriving community center, home to robust environmental educational programs, a diverse collection of live animals, and seasonal exhibits, films, and lectures.
How you can contribute:
The Board welcomes your help working on our annual fundraising/ community events such as: Down on the Farm (Memorial Day Weekend), Hoot & Howl (end of October) and Chili Challenge (mid September). We’re always looking for committed Board members who embrace our mission of preserving the environment through education. If you’re interested in joining our effort, please get in touch.
