Special Event: October 17-18, 2025
During this charming, not-too-spooky event, visitors can enjoy a hoot-i-ful woodland walk to meet nocturnal animal characters in fun costumes that call the sanctuary their home!
Highlights
Visit with our nature guides in the “Closet of Curiosities” at the Nature Center, where they will showcase fascinating natural history exhibits from the sanctuary's collection.
Don’t miss your chance to meet live owls in the Nature Classroom.
Explore our festively decorated barn where you can get creative with Halloween-inspired nature crafts for kids, enjoy humorous games, and take pictures at our fun photo stand-in, all while listening to live music.
Be sure to see the captivating Jack-o'-Lantern display in front of the charming 1780s farmhouse, and around the firepits and Pavilion while the sun sets.
Everyone is welcome, and costumes are encouraged!
