We will provide the space, expertise, and materials as you create memories and fun projects. Availability is limited, so please plan ahead.

    Third Thursday Market

    Spend an evening with us at the nursery once a month at our Third Thursday Market.

Market starts at 5pm with food and shopping, and live music begins at 6pm.

    Gem & Fossil Event

    Check out how much fun we had exploring at the nursery! From collecting amazing rocks and druzy quartz, to sifting for gems in the sand, our Gem & Fossil Event is a hands-on, exciting, educational day for people of all ages. The swimming in the creek and ice cream is an added bonus! Watch Facebook for event information and sign-up.

    Raptor Meet & Greet

    Over the past few years, our amazing community helped us raise enough money to help feed the birds and build a new enclosure at the River Valley Raptor Center, and got to experience a lot of amazing birds while learning all about these birds of prey. Watch Facebook for details of future events.
