In addition to our scheduled programs, Shepherd’s Corner Ecology Center offers on-demand programming. Each program lasts on average 1 ½ hours and includes a snack of baked goods and a beverage.
The programs below can be adapted to fit the needs of your group. Programs can be held for homeschool groups, scout troops or groups, youth groups, and so forth. If you are looking for a youth field trip, please visit this link. The pricing for these on demand programs begins at $5 per participant with a minimum of five participants. In most cases these programs will be scheduled Monday – Friday during office hours, 8:00 am – 4:00 pm. Other times may be considered in consideration with staff scheduling. On demand programs can also be added on to facility rental.
