Did you know that regular household glass cannot be recycled in your commingle recycling bin? Only glass bottles and jars can be recycled at home, all other glass, ceramics and pottery should be upcycled, donated or put in the trash to avoid contamination. Happy recycling♻️!

Happy World Farm Animal Day! 🐄🐐🐑• Our barnyard at the Nature Center is filled with animals you'd typically see on a farm—including goats! Did you know? Goats, like cows, have four stomachs. This helps them digest the rough foods that make up their diet, like hay and grass. Our goats, like all of our animals, have special diets to keep them healthy, so please be mindful not to feed them when you visit!

October is finally here! 🍁 The leaves are just starting to change color and it's the perfect time to visit the Nature Center! What better way to get into the fall spirit than with some tasty, freshly-made apple cider? Join us on Monday, October 14, from 1-2pm as we learn about the authentic process of making apple cider. Families will learn to use an old-fashioned screw press and get to sample this crisp, tangy drink. 🍎
