Education Programs

DeVries Nature Conservancy strives to connect children with nature in a variety of ways. Take a look at our one-of-a-kind opportunities to discover your inner wild side! 

Nature Storytime
(formerly Nature Playgroup)




Our Nature Storytime programs are designed to immerse your preschool to early elementary-aged children in the natural world. Each program will consist of different activities, hikes, games and crafts. Please be prepared to go outside and get messy!

This week's Storytime, we will read "Trees!" by Verlie Hutchens,
 followed by a tree craft and nature walk to look for different types of trees to celebrate Arbor Day!
Friday, April 26th from 10-11am
