Wooded trails and native gardens fill Woodend Sanctuary, a Chevy Chase haven for environmental education.
Description





Formerly known as the Audubon Naturalist Society, Nature Forward runs regional environmental education and advocacy from its headquarters on the sanctuary's historic grounds. The organization's roster spans adult classes, youth programs, summer camps, and a nature preschool, pairing outdoor teaching with broader conservation work. Those initiatives concentrate directly on biodiversity, climate action, and sustainable land use across the greater Washington, DC area.
