What’s Happening
Learn‑to‑Fish Station - Bring your own rod and we’ll supply the bait. We have a hunch, that bass and bluegill will be biting!
Pond Life Discovery - Scoop critters with dip‑nets, then zoom in on them under a field microscope to identify macroinvertebrates and see who really lives beneath the surface.
Pick‑Your‑Own Flower Farm - Wander colorful rows, snap photos, or purchase a bouquet to take home. Rumor has it an ice‑cream social may pop up as well, but stay tuned!
50‑Acre Woodland Hike - Stretch your legs on gentle forest trails just steps from the pond.
Please RSVP with the link above to let us know you're coming. We only have room for 25 people.
Things to note:
- Anyone over 16 who plans to fish, needs to have a fishing license. Children under 16 are exempt and do not need a fishing license.
- Restroom facilities available
- The pond is teeming with fish so catching fish is guaranteed. However, the largemouth bass are catch and release. You can keep some of the bluegill.
- Pack water, sun protection, and a picnic if you'd like.
