Mission Statement

The mission of Blandford Nature Center is to educate, engage, and empower our community to become stewards of the natural world that sustains us.

Our vision is to invigorate relationships with nature that lead individuals to transform their community and create a healthy, sustainable world.

Description

Using 143 acres of land and wildlife as the backdrop, Blandford Nature Center provides education and community programs that:

  • Educate our community to understand our environment, our heritage, and our connection to natural systems.
  • Engage people to actively use natural spaces and adopt sustainable practices.
  • Empower people to embrace nature and new perspectives.

Blandford Nature Center believes children and adults learn best through personal experience. Our job, and our passion, is to invite our community to get their hands dirty in nature - whether that be standing knee-high in water to learn about stream ecology or planting squash seeds to start a garden.
