The Indian Creek Nature Center is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting a sustainable future through environmental education, land protection and restoration, and fostering responsible interaction with nature. Founded in 1973, it serves as a hub for immersive outdoor education, offering a wide range of programs for all ages, including a nature-based preschool, after-school programs, and adult workshops on topics like beekeeping and sustainable living. The center features seven miles of trails through nearly 500 acres of protected woodlands, prairies, and wetlands, providing opportunities for exploration and discovery. Their mission is to nurture individuals, provide leadership in land stewardship, and encourage a deep connection with the natural world, ultimately aiming to create 'Champions of Nature' who will protect the environment for future generations. Admission to the grounds and trails is free, and the center also offers accessible amenities like all-terrain wheelchairs.
