The Naturalist Workshop is a perfect place to explore the natural world: get a close-up view through microscopes and magnifying glasses, use a balance to check and compare objects’ weight and identify your finds with field guides and touchable specimens.

If you’re a collector of natural objects, you’ll want to check out the Workshop’s Trade Counter. Bring your favorite rock, seedpod, shell or other cool natural item and earn points for it plus what you know and learn about it. Use the points to trade for new treasures like sparkling minerals, exotic sea shells, animal bones, fossils, polished rocks and much more.

Trade Counter Hours: Every Wednesday thru Saturday 10am to 4pm.

The Naturalist Workshop
is found in the
Visitor’s Pavilion
