ODC Network (ODC) is a registered 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to advancing outdoor education and conservation in West Michigan.
ODC has connected more than 1.3 million people to nature through hands-on, outdoor learning experiences since 2000. They strive to create meaningful learning experiences for all ages through early childhood education, strategic partnerships with K-12 schools, and engaging community programs.
ODC operates four nature-based early childhood centers, serving nearly 400 young learners each year. Our programs address the growing need for high-quality childcare while reinforcing the importance of outdoor exploration in early education.
ODC has preserved thousands of acres of natural habitat through dedicated restoration and preservation projects. Their preserves total over 800 acres and are free to visit. ODC aspires to create a better community by connecting people, land, and nature.
