Penn Farm Blacklighting Night

Join our staff for a moon-lit evening as we explore some of our park's most mysterious residents.

After night falls, a whole new world emerges at Cedar Hill State Park, full of wonders and mysteries.

Though often ignored in favor to their butterfly cousins, moths are far more numerous and diverse than their day-flying kin, pollinating countless flowers and supporting our local ecosystems in ways we are just barely starting to understand. Come gather around our mothing stations to meet and learn about some of Cedar Hill's most mysterious residents!
