Kids in Nature

In the end, we will protect only what we love.
We will love only what we understand.
We will understand only what we are taught
.

Our growing "Kids in Nature" program is designed to get children into nature and light a spark that will last a lifetime. The mountains of Western NC are an ecologists playground and we want to ensure that every child who lives or visits our corner of the world has the opportunity to dig a little deeper and gain an appreciation for our abundant natural heritage.

We work with several children's groups in the Highlands and Cashiers areas including:

Blue Ridge School
Boys and Girls Club of the Plateau
Gordon Center After School Group

Literacy Council of Highlands

Sonshine School
Summit Charter School - Heritage Club
Town of Highlands Summer Rec Camp

These programs would not be possible without the support of our sponsors:
Cashiers Community Fund, Church of the Good Shepherd, Cullasaja Women's Outreach, Highlands Community Fund, Laurel Garden Club, Macon County Community Foundation, Mountain Findings, Wade Hampton Foundation Fund. Thank you!
