| Desc | Education: With creativity and ingenuity, Blue Heron Nature Preserve educators harnessed the beauty of nature to inspire enriching experiences for children and adults. Applying highly respected Reggio Emilia curriculum, our educators guided students, families, and educators to appreciate the Preserve as a wondrous classroom, research center, and community hub. In 2019, 2710 students benefited from this approach through participation in Blue Heron after school programs, field trips, summer camps, school-break camps, and nature-themed birthday parties. 789 students in the metropolitan area expanded their science knowledge through visits to the Preserve. The youth that we serve today with educational programs will better serve tomorrow as champions for the environment. | Desc |

| Desc | Conservation: Dedication to land conservation has been the driving force for our organization to expand the Preserve into thirty-acres of greenspace featuring a beloved community garden and habitat restoration and tree preservation projects. Partnering with environmental groups in 2019, we beautified the landscape from the removal of invasive plants. Our staff engaged volunteers to donate 621 hours for grant-funded conservation projects. We invested grant funding to conserve more energy and water at our Blue Heron Nature Preserve office building. Work on a revolutionary beaver dam project with the City of Atlanta reflects our longstanding relationship with a valued partner and our longtime belief in the power of nature to restore land, life, and spirit. | Desc |

| Desc | Blueway Trail: Through a robust capital campaign and heartfelt community support, our nonprofit organization funded the development and construction of the 3-mile Blueway Trail in 2019. This soft walking trail has transformed Blue Heron Nature Preserve by boosting our education, conservation, and arts programming; strengthening public health and wellness; and increasing access throughout our greenspace. Hundreds of adults and children from Atlanta and neighboring cities explore our vibrant landscape along the Blueway Trail. Thirty acres of stunning wetlands, woodlands, riparian, and meadow ecosystems in the Preserve, once challenging to reach, are readily accessible for reflection, recreation, and discovery. By connecting thirty-acres in this city park, we are building stronger communities and life-long connections to nature. | Desc |

| Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services Description | OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Public Art: The art programming at Blue Heron Nature Preserve blossomed with more visitors and increased acclaim in 2019. We organized highly regarded quarterly art shows inside our gallery attracting enthusiasts from Atlanta and surrounding communities. Art of Nature, our six-week outdoor art installation, accentuated our picturesque grounds with elegance during the spring. Performing art productions in collaboration with cultural groups amplified the awe of nature. Our yearly Artist-in-Residence strengthened the Preserve as a sanctuary for opportunity and support for nature-focused artists. The new Blueway Trail promises additional pathways for inventive arts programming and events at the Preserve. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: Partnerships: Partnerships with allied nonprofit organizations, civic entities, and corporate groups have been critical to the success of our 2019 educational, conservation, and arts initiatives. We collaborated with partners Atlanta Audubon Society and The Amphibian Foundation for events to educate students about wildlife at the Preserve. Corporate and individual donations and sponsorship provided essential funding for the completion of three miles of soft paths and bridges to host exhibits, events, and art along the Blueway Trail. Tapping into this love for the lands, we partnered with private and public groups for their volunteers to spruce our city park. We are excited to build on current relationships and forge new opportunities with supporters in the years ahead. |
