The Children’s Forest is part of the Southern California Mountains Foundation, a non-profit organization located in the San Bernardino National Forest. This spectacular 3,400-acre area of forest includes individual and group campsites, the Exploration and Phoenix hiking trails, and Keller Peak Fire Lookout.
The purpose of the Children’s Forest is to provide opportunities for youth to take a leadership role in forest management by giving them a legitimate voice in caring for our local mountains. Through formal education and volunteer programs, the Children’s Forest has encouraged local kids to become Forest Rangers, Fire Fighters, Meteorologists, and Stewarts of the land. We aim to evoke a fascination with nature that continues for generations.
Running community, help us by donating so we can continue the commitment of lifelong learning and environmental stewardship for these San Bernardino Mountains.
This project was special to Janiece Camacho. Help us keep her zeal for the mountains ALIVE for our future to enjoy.
