Notice

Current NYS guidelines state that no more than 10 people may gather for any non-essential group—this includes both indoor AND outdoor gatherings. As such, we have adjusted our Back to Nature and Naturalist School programs accordingly. At this time, Greenburgh Nature Center advises all visitors to adhere to these guidelines in order to keep our community safe!
