ABOUT WINNIE

“We cannot stop the winter or the summer from coming.
We cannot stop the spring or the fall or make them other than they are. They are gifts from the universe that we cannot refuse.
but we can choose what we will contribute to life when each arrives.” 

- Gary Zukhav, Author of 'Soul Stories'

frosty fridays

​There's no excuse for cabin fever!
Visit us on the fourth Friday of the month in January, February, and March, from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm.
We will 
#GetOutside and experience nature in all kinds of weather.

Join Us Friday, January 27th at 10:30 am and we will demonstrate how to use iNaturalist and join our WPNR citizen scientist project.  Then we will bundle up and set off on the trail to observe nature in hibernation.  We will cap off the frosty day with cocoa in the barn where you can relax and enjoy our educational displays, animal friends, and our ever-growing lending library.

All ages are welcome, no registration is required.
