About the Dewitt Nature Center
Our Mission
It is the mission of the Friends of DeWitt Nature Center (FDNC) to foster an appreciation for the nature in students and the community by protecting, preserving, and promoting a unique and natural old-growth forest habitat in the DeWitt Nature Center for:
- The education of school children
- The enjoyment and enrichment of the larger community
- The advancement of educational and scientific endeavors for future generations.
