Conserving Lands and Habitats, for Birds and People
The John James Audubon Center (JJAC) is a nonprofit nature center and bird and wildlife sanctuary with 175 acres of forests, meadows, and stream valleys, plus a number of historic buildings, including the first American home of John James Audubon (1785–1851). Audubon was the ornithologist, naturalist, conservationist, and bird portrait painter who’s influential 1827 Birds of America pictorial guide became helped inspire the formation of the National Audubon Society.
JJAC's programming reflects that of the National Audubon Society in general, focusing on conserving ecosystems and biodiversity, protecting natural habitats, and reconnecting people with nature. One popular exhibit is “safe housing” for a group of magnificent owls and other birds unable to be released back into the wild due to injury or illegal human imprinting. There’s also the “Fledgling Trail,” an interactive playground where children can enjoy mimicking the stages of being a baby bird—hatching from an egg, being in a nest, and finally leaving the nest to fly away through the forest on a zip line!

JJAC's numerous educational and outreach activities have earned it an "Outstanding Environmental Education Program" award from the Pennsylvania Association of Environmental Educators. In nearby Norristown, for example, JJAC has introduced native plants programming to numerous local schools, enhancing science classes through hands-on, exploratory learning that can’t be replicated inside classrooms.
Backed by Audubon's century of conservation history, the John James Audubon Center at Mill Grove is a great place to keep abreast of efforts to conserve nature and protect and restore the habitats we share with birds and other wildlife.
