In partnership with our neighbors at the Nurture Nature Center, join us for a virtual dialogue on how we, both individually and as a community, can contribute to a greener future for all.
From initiatives like their urban recycle garden, pocket parks, and microforests, the Nurture Nature Center has been a leading advocate across the Lehigh Valley for mitigating the effects of climate change. Nationally recognized for its local initiatives, NNC blends art, science, and community dialogue to provide programs for youth, families, and individuals alike.
This program will be both informative and participatory – what questions do you have for your community? How can we begin to enact positive change, even in our own backyards?
Explore, learn, discover, and discuss how even small-scale impacts can create lasting change in the neighborhoods we call home.
