Nature Festival Is A Day Of Fun With Wildlife

Think of the Nature Conservancy’s Nature Festival as a field trip.

Remember how fun field trips were when you were in school? Well, this may be even more fun. The nature festival is family-focused with activities for kids and adults.

The field-trip aspect comes from all the unexpected adventures that await at this festival. Try soil painting or hands-on photography, view a native bird exhibit and demo from the Sutton Avian Research Center then grab a drink from the wine tasting station and listen to the live bluegrass music.

The festival celebrates the Oklahoma chapter of the Nature Conservancy’s 25th year, so the focus is on native wildlife, animals and habitats.

The cost is $20 per person or $50 per family. Don’t be turned off by the price: It includes admission, food, drinks and all activities.

There’s a lot going on Sunday, but I’m going to squeeze this one in. We’re taking our kiddos to Shalomfest and then heading to the Nature Festival. Here’s hoping for clear skies and a fun field trip – or two. By Natalie Mikles,  Tulsa World
