People of all ages discover extraordinary treasures at Frick Environmental Center, which offers programs about the park's habitats and ecology. The 151-acre Frick Woods Nature Reserve offers an opportunity to see Pennsylvania's native plants in its meadows and woodlands.

The center serves as the starting point of an extensive trail system—including a handicap-accessible trail through the woods—used for educational programs and nature walks. Nature programs, including day camps and school and family programs, continue year round on the grounds of the Frick Woods Nature Reserve.
