Grandfather Mountain is a place of amazing biodiversity and scenic beauty that towers 5,946 feet above northwest North Carolina. As part of the United Nations’ Southern Appalachian Biosphere Reserve, the mountain is home to 73 rare and endangered species and 16 different natural communities. Grandfather Mountain Stewardship Foundation is the nonprofit organization that operates the portion of the mountain that is home to the Mile High Swinging Bridge, Mildred the Bear Environmental Habitats, Wilson Center for Nature Discovery, hiking trails, and more. The mission of the organization is to inspire conservation of the natural world through education, exploration, and example.

Yonni’s Clubhouse is a part of the expanding Conservation Campus at Grandfather Mountain that includes the Wilson Center for Nature Discovery, the Williams Outdoor Learning Space, Cobey Botanical Garden and more. Yonni’s Clubhouse, located next to the Wilson Center, is geared toward children ages 5 to 12, though all are welcome.

This new facility is designed to combine learning and fun by integrating indoor and outdoor educational opportunities, demonstrating how concepts taught in a classroom can play out in nature. The space will be 1,300 square feet and ADA-accessible – including Jada and Mila’s Discovery Trail outside. The clubhouse hosts around 10 interactive indoor exhibits, focusing on pollinators, climate, weather, and ecosystems that include a seek-and-find forest mural, glass exhibit habitats for educational animals, a full-scale tree model, a drawing nook, and a microscope station.
