Flanders Nature Center & Land Trust was founded in 1963 by artist and nature lover Natalie Van Vleck. Flanders owns and manages over 1800 acres of open space in the majority of four Connecticut towns: Woodbury, Bethlehem, Middlebury and Southbury. In an ongoing effort to preserve open space for future generations, Flanders continues to work to obtain and preserve additional land.

The Center's sanctuaries have a wide variety of trails that may be enjoyed by the public seven days a week year-round. Flanders also provides a range of environmental and educational programs available to schools, youth organizations and the general public.

For more information about membership, volunteer opportunities or the programs available at Flanders please call 203-263-3711.
