Two years ago, our science co-op went to The Nature Center in Asheville. The kids had a blast! The Nature Center is one of just a few places to have a Red Wolf re-introduction programs in the country. They also have a Butterfly exhibit, Otter exhibit , a reptile house and so much more.
Throughout the school year and during the summer, The Nature Center also offers educational classes as well as summer camps.
The Nature Center is doing its best to teach everyone about the plants and animals located in the southern Appalachian region. I believe they are doing a fine job of it too. We will definitely be going back soon.
