Pollinator education in Atlanta, Georgia

Bear Creek Nature Center is a private, non-profit environmental education facility located at 6300 Cochran Mill Road in Chattahoochee Hills, Georgia. Our mission is to spread the joy of nature and the outdoor world by teaching people of all ages in our community about our environment. We offer a wide range of environmental and wildlife sciences, including zoology, botany, and ecology. Nestled in a rural, mixed hardwood forest just 20 minutes from the Hartsfield-Atlanta Airport, we are proud to be the only nature center in Georgia with a live native bat exhibit. Our resident animal ambassadors include exotic and non-releasable native reptiles, amphibians, and birds of prey. We also host three major annual events: Pollinator Day, Reptile Rally, and Bat Fest.
