Where Conservation Meets Exploration

The Huron County Nature Center and Wilderness Arboretum stands as a sanctuary for nature enthusiasts and environmentalists alike. This natural haven is dedicated to preserving and showcasing the rich biodiversity of Michigan's flora and fauna.

At the heart of the Nature Center lies its wilderness arboretum, a protected haven where native plants, animals, and ecosystems thrive undisturbed. The center's diverse geography, characterized by sand ridges and shallow swales, provides a conducive environment for scientific research, education, and immersive nature experiences.
