At Ithaca Children’s Garden, we witness the joys of growing every day.

Children discover how to face their fears and transcend their limitations through nature play. Summer camp counselors build confidence through experience and transform into mentors and leaders. Caregivers find renewed joy in the messiness and imagination of their children.

2022 was a year filled with growth and change. We welcomed a new Executive Director, constructed the Garden’s first four-season shelter, and returned our signature community events!

As an ICG supporter and friend, you know that growth brings joy and new adventures. Join us in bringing transformative magic to every child, every day. Your gift connects more children to nature to create a more beautiful, resilient, and just world.

Professor Don Rakow, from Cornell's School of Integrative Plant Science Horticulture Section, brought his Nature Rx Class to ICG on October 24th. 

They were able to have a tour with our Executive Director Candice (she/her) and Education Director Lauren (she/her) to learn more about the magic of how our site and programs facilitate nature connection for kids of all ages.
