Nature School

As we evaluate staffing needs and program priorities, the Conservatory made the difficult decision not to offer Nature School in Fall 2026. We remain committed to the program and are working toward bringing Nature School back in the future. In the meantime, we do offer seasonal early childhood programming in our Children’s Garden (story time, garden club, etc.) led by our education team! More information is available here

Nature School provides young children with unique and meaningful opportunities to explore the world around them.

Nature School is a unique, collaborative learning experience for small groups of children ages 3–5 (all participants must be potty trained). The children spend time exploring the Conservatory and participating in classroom activities problem solving, discovering, experimenting and asking questions. Science, language arts, math, art and music will be used to support learning in a fun, developmentally appropriate way.
