Mission

Piedmont Wildlife Center inspires people to develop a positive lifelong connection with the natural world and encourages active engagement in conservation. We accomplish this through a community oriented approach to nature education, leadership development, and conservation science. Our goal is to connect or reconnect people to nature and to teach them how they can contribute in a positive way to improve their environment for humans as well as the native flora and fauna with which we share our environment.
