Welcome to
The Waterman Center

Learn - Protect - Serve - Belong

Take a hike or picnic at one of our six distinct nature preserves. Each preserve offers a unique set of trails, ecosystems, and history.

​

Visit the interpretive center and meet our ambassador animals Ted, Sal, and Sophie. Check out a book from our library and explore the museum.

We offer plenty of educational programs! Try out one of our Saturday drop-in guided hikes, center talks, or microscopy corner.

 

Come with your school or organization for a tailored experience.

​

Sign up for our summer camps for all-day fun and learning.

People need nature! Your contributions keep our community connected to the lands that support our mental and physical health!

​​​

​

​

Can't donate money, donate time! We are always looking for dedicated volunteers.

Join a community of nature lovers committed to supporting conservation efforts and keeping our preserves forever wild for public enjoyment. Inspire a new generation to continue your legacy of protecting natural spaces. Help support the Waterman Centers by becoming a member!
