Inspiring a deeper appreciation for Florida's unique natural environment through hands-on learning and community.
Educational Programs
Nehrling Gardens offers engaging educational programs for children, families, schools, and adults that inspire a deeper appreciation for Florida's unique natural environment.
Our programs combine hands-on activities, interactive learning, and guided nature walks while following place-based educational principles focused on Florida's native habitats, wildlife, and ecosystems. Through these experiences, participants build a stronger connection to the nature found right in their own communities.
