The Frick Environmental Center began offering environmental education programs in1979, and it has since hosted thousands of area children for field lessons, nature hikes, and summer camps.  With special programs for Earth Day, Arbor Day, Halloween, and other occasions, the Environmental Center is a true community resource.

Tragically, the Center's main building burned in 2002, but year-round programs for the public are still available including workshops on birding, wreath making, weed identification, backpacking, cross-country skiing and nature photography.  The Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy and the City of Pittsburgh are currently working together to plan for the Center's restoration.
