Help Us Protect Springbrook Nature Center!

Our trees and plants are an important part of what makes Springbrook Nature Center special. They provide food and shelter for wildlife, support our native habitats, and help keep our natural areas healthy.

Please remember that **cutting down, removing, or damaging any trees or plants at Springbrook Nature Center is prohibited by Village ordinance.** Even a small tree plays an important role in our ecosystem!

If you see someone cutting or damaging trees or plants, please report it to the Itasca Police Department's non-emergency line at 630-773-1004 or contact Springbrook Nature Center at 630-773-5572.

Want to help protect and restore our natural areas? Contact the Nature Center to learn about volunteer opportunities!

Thank you for helping us preserve Springbrook Nature Center for our wildlife and future generations.
