Come experience unforgettable educational adventures at the Alabama Nature Center, a hands-on outdoor education facility encompassing 420 acres of beautiful forests, fields, streams, wetlands, and ponds that are traversed by five miles of trails and boardwalks, as well as our 23,000 sq. ft. NaturePlex.

Join us twice a month for nature-infused programs in a small group setting designed exclusively to complement your homeschool curriculum. Topics will include outdoor skills, wildlife studies, pond/creek exploration, animal encounters, and much more!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Classes meet on Wednesdays OR Thursdays and we offer a morning session 10:00am-12:00pm as well as an afternoon session 1:30pm-3:30pm. For ages 4.5 and under, an adult chaperone is required to be present with each student at all times for the duration of the class. We encourage you to come have lunch to socialize with friends before or after your session so that when class starts we can maximize our educational time.

Students are not guaranteed to be grouped with siblings! Students are grouped by ages to allow lessons to be tailored for their age level to make activities more engaging for the specific age level. Our facility is open to the general public and operates on a closed gate system. Participating families will be given a code to use on homeschool days to enter the gate, and there will be a window for drop-off and pick-up that the gate will be open.
