Welcome to the Aldo Leopold Nature Center!
Mission & Philosophy
The mission of the Aldo Leopold Nature Center is to "...teach the student to see the land, understand what he sees, and enjoy what he understands." in the spirit of famed Wisconsin conservationist, Aldo Leopold. Through hands-on, guided experiences, children and adults come to discover and explore the wonders of the natural world!

The Aldo Leopold Nature Center specializes in connecting children, their families and teachers to the outdoors.

The Aldo Leopold Nature Center was established in 1994 as an independent not-for-profit charitable organization. It operates year-round, is governed by a volunteer board of directors and managed by professional staff. The Center is solely supported by charitable contributions and program fees.
