Natural Areas


Nature Centers and Old Maryland Farm
Hands-on exhibits, live animals, theme gardens, and a variety of interpretive programs are offered at the Commission's three nature centers in Prince George's County. Exciting interpretive and educational programs are conducted by professional park naturalists at these sites, as well as at the Old Maryland Farm, an educational facility within Watkins Regional Park, which serves as an agricultural exhibit and livestock display area. Staff from the nature facilities works closely with conservation agencies, schools, and community groups to provide support for special events, natural area park management, and environmental education.


Conservation Areas/Natural Park Areas
The Commission owns and/or manages several conservation area sites and natural area parks throughout Prince George's County. Emphasis is placed on preserving natural resources at these unique sites.
