Our Work
Our Work
We believe celebrating natural areas enhances a community’s value and improves health and wellness. Nearby Nature wants to build partnerships and leverage resources to nurture a community-driven effort of renewal and repair of natural areas.
We hope this effort will generate opportunities for youth, adults, and their families to venture to natural areas in and out of the city.
