Celebrating 25 years of Nature in the City!
September 2026 kicks off the 25th year of the Baltimore Woods Nature in the City program bringing authentic, hands-on/minds-on natural science learning to K-5th grade urban school children in the City of Syracuse. Serving ALL elementary schools across the Syracuse City School District, our Environmental Education team visits every K-5 grade classroom for three, one-hour hands-on/minds-on natural science lessons tied to the curriculum each school year.
You can make sure over 8,000 students get these engaging opportunities to connect with nature right here in their community. Be part of the joy of exploration by becoming a program supporter today. You’ll be giving students the chance to be inspired by what’s right outside their door!
Thanks to our committed 2025-26 supporters for giving the gift of wonder, science, & nature through Nature in the City!
