About Children’s Programs

Where Nature, Learning, and Community Meet

Our programs for children connect people of all ages with nature, food, and community right in the heart of New Haven. From after-school adventures to summer camp, weekend hikes, and family events, these programs invite children and families to explore, play, and learn outdoors.

“Nature is for everyone and there is no wrong way to be a nature lover”.
- Rebecca Holcombe, Director of Children’s Programs reflect Common Ground’s belief that when children and families connect deeply with nature, they grow stronger, healthier, and more connected to their community.
