How Does It Grow? EcoStation is an
active, outdoor/indoor environmental
exhibit where visitors engage in
ecological studies and explore
environmental issues by visiting a native plant garden, woodland area, pond and a research pavilion. Through these and several other areas, visitors can participate in diverse hands-on activities such as stream bed creation, insect collecting, leaf rubbings, footprint identification, and more!
Visitors may also participate in always
changing programming that includes things
such as nature journals, water quality testing,
decomposition observations, soil type explorations, home environmental awareness inventory logs, bird feeders and many more activities that can be used in the exhibit areas or even taken home for further backyard experiences!
Plus, almost all of EcoStation is now powered by solar energy - come see how we're using it and learn more about solar power in an exhibit developed in partnership with industry expert Standard Renewable Energy.
