Explore the living world
Outdoor spaces give children real things to notice, investigate, and care for through the changing season.
Green Garden · Nature Quest Summer Camp
Longer days make space for new questions, friendships, muddy shoes, and stories worth bringing home.
Nature Quest gives children time outdoors, people to belong with, and meaningful ways to explore, make, and care for their community.

Four communities. Many ways to explore.
Clawson · Macomb · Madison Heights · Huntington WoodsThe Nature Quest spirit
Children bring their own questions, skills, and ideas. Our team listens, makes space for exploration, and helps a small discovery become a shared project or a new challenge.
Ask our enrollment team for the current season’s age groups, session themes, activities, trips, and availability.

Outdoor spaces give children real things to notice, investigate, and care for through the changing season.
Projects, materials, and shared plans give children room to create, solve problems, and contribute their ideas.
Familiar adults help children build friendships, navigate challenges, and feel at home in the group.
A memorable summer is made from the things children get to do, notice, and become part of.
Let the questions lead.
A day with room to explore
Camp experiences change with the school, the group, and the session. These are the kinds of moments we make room for at Green Garden.
Notice tracks, leaves, light, and sounds. Compare what changed since the last visit and decide what to investigate next.
Turn a question into art, construction, a story, or a project that takes more than one day.
Practice responsibility through gardens, living things, shared spaces, and opportunities to contribute to the community.



Beyond the usual day
Field trips and community care projects have been part of Nature Quest. The destinations and projects change by season; our team can share the current plans.
Field trips
At hands-on exhibits and out in the community, campers can try something unfamiliar, talk through what they see, and bring a discovery back to the group.


Community care in action
In a recent summer, campers practiced care in ways they could understand and take part in. They learned that a small action can make someone feel seen and that shared places belong to all of us.
Families and campers gathered new supplies for a local Foster Closet serving children and families.
Campers collected books and helped fill neighborhood Little Free Libraries for more readers to enjoy.
Children assembled birthday kits with cake mix, candles, and cheerful signs to help make a celebration possible.
Campers helped clean a local park and learned what it means to care for a place everyone shares.
Children wrote and made cards for local police and fire teams to thank the people who serve their community.
Older campers shared books with younger children, practicing patience, friendship, and encouragement.
