Connect, Explore, and Learn with TNC
Discover meaningful, nature-based experiences for learners of every age at Tenafly Nature Center. Each year, our professional Environmental Educators engage more than 1,100 groups, and countless families and individuals, with programs that spark curiosity, deepen understanding, and bring the wonders of the natural world to life. From field trips and TNC-to-Go visits, to scout adventures, after-school enrichment, homeschool sessions, birthday parties, seasonal events, camps, facility rentals, gifted and talented offerings, and professional development for educators, TNC provides inspiring opportunities both on-site and at your location.
Programs are available year-round, with options for groups of 10 or more as well as unique experiences for individuals and families. Advance reservations are required, as space is limited and programs fill quickly. Let us help you explore, learn, and connect with nature in ways that are hands-on, memorable, and fun.
