We are thrilled to announce that FCNS and BOPN are 

merging together as one non-profit organization. 

What this merger means

The idea to merge FCNS and BOPN developed naturally through conversation, since we both share a deep commitment to developmentally appropriate practice and nature

connection. This merger is a measure to increase stability and community impact for both organizations. Importantly, it will ensure that FCNS, a treasured and long-standing program, will continue as a community mainstay focused on nature-based early childhood education with a clear emphasis on learning outdoors.
