Connecting people, place, and community since 1986.
Welcome to PCEI!
Join Our Playgroup!
All families with young children are invited to join us for relaxed nature play time and exploring the Palouse Nature Center in a variety of seasons. Some weeks we will read stories under the covered Pavilion or in the Greenhouse together before heading to the play areas or exploring the trails, and some weeks people will just meet at the playground behind the greenhouse. On rainy or extra chilly days we may meet in the Greenhouse. Stay, play, and picnic as long as you’d like! See more details HERE.

Open dawn to dusk, 7 days a week.
Enjoy trails, wetlands, outdoor art, and sustainable features at the
Palouse Nature Center and unique habitats at the Rose Creek Nature Preserve!
Growing Our Community
One New Member at a Time
Programming and projects at PCEI always keep us busy! We’ve been planning meaningful education programs, restoring at-risk stream ecosystems, hosting fun parties and events, and keeping up with maintenance at the PCEI Nature Center and Rose Creek Nature Preserve.
To maintain and grow our programs, we also need to maintain and grow our PCEI community. Memberships help us improve PCEI’s natural spaces, provide more stellar events, and deliver more educational programs. Plus, a strong membership base gives us more credibility and strength when applying for grants. Please consider joining the PCEI community.
