New Nature Center Now Open!

After years of support from the community, our membership, and the City of Chico, the Chico Creek Nature Center is excited to announce the completion of our new interpretive facility and Kristie's Nature Lab!

Thank you to all who have given a lasting gift to Bidwell Park and the community by supporting the Nature Center in its mission to bring quality environmental education to the community. Of course our financial needs are continuing, so please support the nature center through membership or the ongoing "Buy a Brick" program. Download the form on the right sidebar or call 891-4671 for more information.

Big thanks to the many that have done so already! Previously purchased bricks have now been neatly placed in the patio outside the new facility and donors are encouraged to come by and view them.

Howard Tucker exhibit hall serves as an introduction to
Bidwell Park.

Kristie's Nature Lab is a great learning resource for our educational programs.

Children get hands-on science experience in Kristie's
Nature Lab.
