Connecting people to nature. Strengthening communities.

Nature Together is a community-based nonprofit expanding access to outdoor experiences, environmental education, and wellness programming across rural Tennessee.

We serve individuals of all ages through free, inclusive programs that bring families, schools, homeschool networks, seniors, and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities into shared experiences in nature.

By removing barriers and creating opportunities to connect outdoors, we are building healthier people, stronger communities, and a deeper connection to the natural world.

"Nature is not a place to visit, it is home." –Gary Snyder
