By clicking the links above, you'll leave AARP and go to a website that is not operated by AARP. A different privacy policy and terms of service will apply.

When you visit Wildwood Nature Center, you feel transported — to somewhere far away from where you really are, to a state of mind that leaves you feeling peaceful and enriched.

Come take a self-guided walk through our five acre nature haven and enjoy our two ponds and butterfly garden. Or, get up close and personal with nature by exploring our interactive exhibits and animal displays. Take a class or a workshop, or simply enjoy the pond and prairie during each seasonal change. It’s all here for you to enjoy.
