Who We Are
We are an environmental education facility of the Bucks County Dept. of Parks & Recreation located on a 65 acre nature preserve adjacent to the Churchville Reservoir in Northampton Twp. Founded in 1964, we were the first nature center in Bucks County. You can take a leisurely hike through our two miles of trails, visit our native wildlife gardens, journey through our exhibit filled visitor center, or participate in one of the various programs offered throughout the year including themed events, weekend programs & nature walks, our seasonal Native Butterfly House, campfire programs, summer camps, and even scheduled educational programs for schools, scouts, birthday parties, and private groups.
