Groton Nature Center
A Natural Connections restoration project.
Groton Nature Center - Free and Open to the Public
The Groton Nature Center, a project of Vermont Parks Forever’s Natural Connections program, has been restored through the public/private partnership between Vermont Parks Forever; ECHO, Leahy Center for Lake Champlain; Vermont State Parks; and the generous support of many donors.
The new nature center provides innovative educational opportunities with the goal of establishing life-long connections between park visitors and the natural world. The Groton Nature Center tells the story of human relationships with nature in Vermont, encouraging an appreciation for and fostering responsible stewardship of Vermont’s natural resources.
The Groton Nature Center, located at 1595 Boulder Beach Rd in Groton, is open Tuesday through Sunday from 9:30am to 6:00pm throughout the park season. Check out photos from the opening and be sure to plan your visit soon!
