Magical moments await your discovery at ICG, thanks to the big-hearted generosity of many. If you love what you see, consider supporting ICG’s work to ensure all children experience the wonders of nature.
Growing the Garden
means growing the future.
We believe the best way to do that is to get more children outside, with hands-on sensory experiences, having fun in the natural world. ICG is a place where kids can be kids and adults can feel good about it.
