The Nurture Nature Center in Pennsylvania was founded with the help of the Nurture Nature Foundation, a nonprofit established in 1991 that is headquartered in New York. The Nurture Nature Center is dedicated to addressing the fundamental conflict between economic development and conservation of the environment.

Upon completion, the Nurture Nature Center will include a variety of exhibits, programs, and other educational activities related to the river and other environmental concerns. A principle focus will be a Flood Project, devoted to educating the public about the flooding problem that has become so urgent in the region and elsewhere.

The Nurture Nature Center is located in the City of Easton, which lies at the confluence of the Delaware River and its second largest tributary, the Lehigh River. The historic building that houses the Center is currently being restored. For information about the building, click here, and here.
