Facilities

The Forsyth Nature Center has 24 animal exhibits and a dozen gardens that contain a variety of native flora found here in the Hudson Valley.

Today, the Mission of the Forsyth Nature Center is “To foster the exploration of the natural world in and around our community through educational programming and contact with flora and fauna at an interpretive facility”.

The Nature Center has been a fixture in the Kingston Community since 1936 and continues to grow and expand with help from the community. Through dedicated volunteers from Friends of Forsyth Nature Center, a non-profit organization, and support from the City of Kingston Parks and Recreation Department; the Nature Center has become an educational stepping stone and a family-friendly place to explore species of all kinds.
