South Side Nature Play is a BIPOC-led nature education cooperative based in the Woodlawn Neighborhood Area in Chicago. We host monthly nature sensory play sessions on public lands in the Chicagoland area, as well as seasonal pop-up events and field trips. Land stewardship is the other central programming goal within SSNP, and we engage in group conservation and restoration efforts at all of our events. By engaging with our mission of growing youth and families’ relationships to the Land, we nurture the climate leaders and environmentalists of tomorrow that our Home Planet so desperately needs.
