Tours

You are invited to register for an informational three-hour walk on our beautiful 255 acres during a scheduled site tour.

The walk will include an opportunity to see our bog, cattail marsh, pond, beautiful forest and ravine. You will also learn about the various sustainable elements of the buildings as well as our educational programs.

Wear comfortable walking shoes - the walk is moderate (with possible mud, steep hills, and gravel); also, you'll be asked to remove your shoes in some of the buildings, so wear ones that can be easily slipped off and on
Wear weather-appropriate clothing - much of the tour takes place outdoors
Water bottles are encouraged; but please no food on the tour
We ask that no children younger than 13 years old be brought on the tour - (small child in a carrier is ok) - sorry, no strollers
