Tom Nook needs your help! There’s a whole new village spanning the habitats here at VINS and the animal villagers have plenty of chores for you to do; cleaning up their environment, restoring habitat, and completing surveys for community science, and of course, no chores go without compensation! Earn prizes completing activities such as catching insects, to add to your critter-pedia (iNaturalist), building homes for our village’s tiniest residents, planting native wildflowers in the meadow and pulling out invasives, digging for and identifying fossils, collecting things on a woodland scavenger hunt, and making crafts!

FREE, no registration required.

"Great place to spend a few hours with kids. My kiddo loved the creative playground, dinosaur exhibit and treehouse room. We went through the raptor aviary three times the Snowy Owls were her favorite. We didn't make it to the canopy walk because it was raining but I believe that's the main attraction. Still, even without this we really enjoyed several hours. Would recommend bringing a stroller if your kid isn't a great walker as stuff is a little spaced out and the trails are extremely accessible."
