Education Opportunities
Spend a fun filled day with your students at the NJC. Each year hundreds of area school children come to the NJC to explore, learn about non-point source pollution, conservation and preservation of our natural resources. Our staff and volunteers provide a wonderful learning experience by offering a hands on field laboratory. Students can learn about promoting conservation, trees, wildlife habitat and much more. The conservation land labs are designed to demonstrate the sources of non-point source pollution caused by run-off. Guided nature hikes are also available.
There are several walking trails available to the public along with five ponds, a wetland, suspension bridge, boardwalk, footbridge, bluebird trails, duck boxes, picnic shelter and much more. The “red barn” is on the National Historic Registry and adds a bit of history to the NJC.
The NJC strives to provide a non competitive setting with successful, hands on learning situations. One of our primary objectives is to help children and adults gain a greater appreciation for our wondrous natural world along with helping to challenge participants with new and exciting experiences.
NJC comes to You!
