The Great Valley Nature Center is located in Malvern, Pennsylvania. It consists of fields, streams, ponds, woods, and diverse habitats. Also featured is a Birds of Prey Center, a replica Native American Lenape village, a Pennsylvania wildflower garden, a maple sugar house, and a hands-on exhibit area.[2] HistorySince its November 1974 incorporation, Great Valley Nature Center (formerly the Nature Center of Charlestown) has provided the Greater Philadelphia region, including Chester County, with environmental education opportunities. Arnold Bartschi contributed the land and start-up costs to establish the nature center. A colonial-era fieldstone bank barn serves as the education building. A converted farmhouse provides administrative, teaching and meeting space. Great Valley Nature Center serves more than 40,000 people (mostly children) every year. The majority of participants receive environmental education programming either on-site or at off-site locations that include schools, scout camps and daycare centers. Great Valley Nature Center also offers Outdoor Adventure Activities for all ages. They offer Day trips up to week long excursions.[3] References1. ^IDILOGIC http://great-valley-nature-center.idilogic.aidpage.com/great-valley-nature-center/ 2. ^Field Trip http://www.fieldtrip.com/pa/09359777.htm 3. ^Great Valley Nature Cernter http://www.gvnc.org/gvnchistory.html/ External links
