The Dahlem Conservancy is a non-profit organization that manages and funds the John and Mary Dahlem Environmental Education Center. We serve as an outdoor classroom for school and public programs, bridging the gap between people and the natural environment. Located on nearly 300 acres, our center showcases the beauty of nature in South Central Michigan.

Explore our five miles of hiking trails, including the Nature for All Trail, and immerse yourself in colorful gardens, lush forests, meadows, and ponds that highlight Michigan's changing seasons. Our visitor center features indoor exhibits with live animals and the Nutshell Gift Shop, offering a variety of nature-related items. We are committed to environmental education, hands-on learning, and preserving the earth's diversity.

As a community resource, we engage and educate our community on environmental stewardship through science, education, leadership, and conservation. Come and experience nature's wonders at Dahlem Conservancy
