Nature Vision, Inc.

Connecting Kids to Nature

Nature Vision fosters appreciation and stewardship of our environment by educating and connecting community to the world around us.

About

Nature Vision is an environmental education nonprofit organization that brings place-based, experiential nature programming directly to schools and local greenspaces. We envision an inspired and connected culture where everyone makes choices for a sustainable future.

We provide in-classroom, remote, and outdoor learning programs to ensure that all students receive quality nature connections where they need them the most. In the classroom and outdoors, Nature Vision serves over 70,000 Pre-K through 12th grade students each year in King and Snohomish Counties. 

Our programming supports the Washington State K-12 Learning Standards and STEM Education, and can be easily integrated into schools. Our lessons facilitate student access to nature and scientific concepts — developing a deep-rooted student interest in making the natural world a necessary and integrated part of daily life.
