Mission
The Mission of the Rusk Ranch Nature Center is to benefit the community with enrichment jobs housing and opportunities for the public particularly young people to appreciate the natural world and instill a sense of stewardship toward the earth and its inhabitants and preserve and conserve nature and wildlife. At Rusk Ranch Nature Center we value the healing power of nature and natures ability to nurture creativity to inspire a sense of belonging and to build community by showing us our deep inter-connectedness. We value the long term wholeness of recognizing that people and nature are inseparable. We strive to nurture whole families multi-age groups and children. Our most significant activities are to offer hands on experiences in nature to families children and visitors.
