Green Family Home

Built in 1932 by Aubrey Green as his family home, our central building is a living artifact of a a different time. Seemingly designed and built with a love of nature and light in mind, the Green home still emanates that same warmth to this day.

Garden & Grounds

Situated around the Green Family Home sits the Roger Pryor Prairie, our greenhouse, and lots of garden beds - from herbs to veggies to native plants to ornamentals - TGC grows it all!

Kaufman Park Woods

The Green Center is proud to offer environmentally focused summer camp programs for St. Louis area children. We have over 200 children participate in our summer camps each year. Our camps emphasize enjoying, appreciating and understanding the 30 acres of woods, prairie and wetland that The Green Center offers. Youths also engage in artistic expression that is inspired by nature.

Urban Bird Corridor & Wetland

The Green Center also helps manage the prairie, wetland, and woodland located under a half mile away from our main building. With an entrance between Brittany Woods Middle School and the Ruth Park Golf Course, there are trails that take you back into the woods and immerse you a bit of forest bathing.
