Join us on the fourth Wednesday from June through August to explore the Morris’s natural areas and discover the rich ecosystem that thrives in our Wetland. Once part of the Morris family estate, this landscape was transformed into a vibrant wetland. Today, it’s home to an abundance of native plants, fish, amphibians, and both year-round and migratory birds. As you wander the meadows and floodplain, keep an eye out for blue herons, belted kingfishers, and other wildlife that make this habitat so special.

Free mini binoculars for kids from 11 am–1 pm, while supplies last. To access the Wetland, park in the lot next to the entrance kiosk or walk the Woodland trail from the main gardens (located behind the Welcome Center).

Wild Wetland Wednesdays is supported in part by AQUA, an Essential Utilities Company.
