Forest are our playgrounds, our sanctuaries.

They provide a home for wildlife, improve our health, and invigorate our minds. They play a crucial role in protecting biodiversity, filtering water, conserving precious soil, and sequestering carbon.

Forests give us so much! But, they're facing threats.

This is why Cincinnati Nature Center is so driven to care for and protect them. As the environment faces challenges like invasive species, climate change, and rapid development, we’re committed to restoring and preserving our natural treasures. 

You will help us:

• Restore the land and protect old-growth forest as vital wildlife habitat

• Participate in important research, such as reestablishing the American chestnut tree

• Teach our community about the importance of native trees

Your investment in the Nature Center will support our boots-on-the-ground conservation efforts. With your help, we can provide exceptional experiences in nature, educate people of all ages, and ensure our forest remains a beautiful and resilient place for generations to come. 

We’re a private nonprofit. Unlike many other cultural centers and parks, the Nature Center is not funded by your tax dollars. We rely on people like you to support our work and protect this special place. 

Your donations have amounted to $19,115 so far. Watch our forest grow with each donation as we get closer to the $25,000 goal!

Give back to the forest you love!
