About Environmental Nature Center
Founded in 1972, the Environmental Nature Center (ENC) is a world-class facility that provides transformative experiences through connection with nature. Our vision is to provide equitable access and inspire all to protect the natural world by serving as our community’s leader in ecological responsibility, sustainable practices and environmental education. The ENC connects over 50,000 community members to nature annually through school field trips, Traveling Naturalist programs, community programs, nature camps, service learning programs, and professional development programs. The ENC’s 5-acre Newport Beach campus features 15 California native plant communities, wildlife habitat, walking trails, and sustainably designed construction. The ENC’s LEED Platinum-certified facilities are nationally recognized and provide an essential connection between nature and the built environment. The ENC Nature Preschool is our community’s first nature-based preschool and serves as a model nature preschool providing a research forum on nature-based early childhood education. The ENC’s 12-acre Tucker Wildlife Sanctuary in Modjeska Canyon includes a natural history museum, trails, and bird observation deck. The ENC is a non-profit 501(c)-3 public benefit corporation.
