Families and animal lovers will have a unique opportunity to get up close and personal with some of Ohio’s wildest residents at the Nature Center Animal Feed and Greet on Saturday, May 10 from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Held at the Alum Creek State Park Nature Center, this engaging event invites visitors to meet the animals that call the center home—and even help feed them.
An Experience That’s Wildly Educational
Located behind the Camp Store at 2911 S. Old State Road in Delaware, the Nature Center is more than just a place to look at wildlife. It’s a place to connect. During this one-hour event, guests will learn about each animal’s care, habitat, and role in Ohio’s ecosystem from expert naturalists. Whether it’s a turtle, snake, or bird of prey, each animal has a story—and this is your chance to hear it firsthand.
Perfect for Families, Campers, and Curious Minds
The Nature Center is known for being a family-friendly, hands-on learning environment. Its accessibility features, including wheelchair-friendly paths and on-site parking, make it a welcoming destination for all. Regularly hosting discovery hikes and educational programs, the center serves as the park’s learning hub and a great complement to the campground, beach, playgrounds, and the popular Storybook Trail nearby.
Plan Ahead for an Unforgettable Visit
Attendees should park in the Camp Store lot and walk down the short road to the Nature Center. Because activities may be seasonal and hours can vary, it’s a good idea to check with park staff for any updates or special considerations.
Whether you’re a frequent camper or a first-time visitor, this Animal Feed and Greet is a great way to introduce young ones (and young-at-heart adventurers) to Ohio’s natural wonders—one furry or scaly friend at a time.
