Join us every Saturday for our year-round indoor farmers’ market! Discover the freshest local produce and fruits, along with a wide variety of baked goods, proteins, and prepared foods—plus plenty of gluten-free and vegan options. There truly is something for everyone.
After the market, take time to explore the antique mall, enjoy lunch at one of the many restaurants, and shop for beautiful seasonal plants, pumpkins, two grocery stores that are open 7 days a week and so much more.
You've heard of birdwatching, but have you heard of bugwatching?
Slow down, tune into nature, and help us document our local pollinator population! Bugwatching can be very grounding and relaxing. Participants can select a sit-spot to observe the dynamic and interesting world of our local buzzing, flying, and crawling friends. Bring a blanket or lawn chair, get comfortable, and enjoy focusing on their world for a while.
We have a limited number of nets, guide books, pocket microscopes, hand lenses, and magnifying glasses that can be borrowed during this program. There will be a fun Pollinator Scavenger Hunt game for those who don't prefer to sit still!
Registration is free, and children must be accompanied by an adult.
Join this free, interactive program as guest expert Zach Dufran shares his specialized light panels to attract an array of nocturnal insects for us to observe.
We will be learning some basic information about iNaturalist, and our discoveries from this program will be added to this year's Parks for Pollinators BioBlitz project on iNaturalist, which is part of a nationwide effort to learn about and support our wildlife.
