Enviro-Wednesdays is an adult (ages 14+) nature series on the first Wednesday of every month at 7 PM at The Nature Place (unless otherwise noted)....
Great for families! Rain or shine! No sign-up is required! Stop by anytime between 9:30 AM and 11:30 AM
We'll embrace 6-7, using randomness of nature discoveries to inspire adventures from camp classics to group-created games!
Learn how the wings of birds, bats, and many insects are alike, different and how they are used.
Test how nature uses smells, slimes, farts and poop to attract, defend, mark territory and more!
We'll get to know nature better by acting out tales and tunes with actions and antics!
Spin with Earth as you investigate cycles of life, water, rocks and space!
In addition to working on attracting and identifying local birds, you'll get to design, construct & test basic bird blinds and more!
We'll take a closer look at plants, including sowing, tending, using and tasting!
Eagle eyes, compound eyes, color vision - we'll investigate many ways there are to look at the world.
Get hands-on with pieces and parts, then adventure outside to learn to find & identify complete live birds!
Many wild plants are edible, native rocks can be historical treasures, certain sticks are more useful than you know - and finding them all can...
Bring a towel each day as we'll explore interesting aspects of water, what it is, how it's used and what lives in it!
Learn to recognize and mimic nature's sounds, from cricket chirps, buzzing bugs, thunder claps and rattlesnake rattles to frog and bird songs.
Join us for the 2026 Driftless Area BioBlitz (DABB)! At these FREE events, experts from our community will be leading field expeditions to teach about specific topics...
Find and compare outer covering of local creatures - cockroaches to crayfish, beetles to millipedes.
Learn to find your way, make a shelter, bear-proof your lunch and develop skills to survive and thrive in outdoor explorations.
We'll pounce, crawl, creep and dash as we learn why and how animals play to learn.
Ultimate hide & seek! We'll be stashing, making maps, leaving clues and looking for each other and buried treasure!
Natural objects will be our muse as we'll collect and create inspired arts and crafts.
