About Lowry Nature Center

Lowry, one of three nature centers in the Three Rivers park system, features seven miles of trails through wetlands and woods, a prairie garden, live animals, interpretive exhibits, a sledding hill, and a gift shop.

It also boasts two unique features: Habitats, an outdoor educational play area complete with giant woodpecker slide, mole tunnel, and beaver lodge; and the newly-restored 1860s farmhouse from Grimm Farm, called the "Birthplace of the Dairy Belt," because it was there, back in the 1870s, that Wendelin Grimm developed the first strain of winter-hardy alfalfa in North America. (The industry is worth $10 billion today.)

Three Rivers recreational programming here includes a wide range of classes and events for families and youth.

Birthday parties: Offered for ages four and up, 15 kids maximum. The $80 fee includes one hour of naturalist-led activities and one hour for cake and socializing. One of the center's animals can join the party for a visit upon request.

Summer Camps: See Three Rivers' Adventure Week offerings.

Tips

Families can volunteer as trail watchers, recording the signs of the changing seasons on center property. It's a flexible commitment, suitable for all ages; call the Volunteer Office at 763.559.6706 for details, and other volunteering options.
