About Us
-
BetterNature is a nonprofit committed to strengthening communities through sustainability, food access, and environmental action. Our four initiatives include Project IRIS, which manages food pantry operations, and Project Terra, which leads environmental cleanups with high school/middle schoolers. Project Hydro explores sustainable water filtration systems with professors, while Project Birdwatch aims to host birdhouse-building workshops and installs them in local parks with support from local retailers.
