NNLA 2024 Field Day

September 19, 2024

Description

   2024 NNLA Field Day
Thursday, September 19, 2024

Come explore...
Lincoln Children’s Zoo
City of Lincoln Public Gardens District
Pioneer Park Nature Center

Join us for walking tours with the horticulture staff at each of our three locations during the Nebraska Nursery and Landscape (NNLA) Field Day on Thursday, September 19. The event will include presentations and tours of each property.

The Lincoln Children’s Zoo
Isaac Fuenning, Director of Horticulture, will lead attendees on a guided tour of the zoo, highlighting plants of interest.

The Lincoln Children’s Zoo is a 10-acre zoo located in the heart of Lincoln, NE. The Zoo, which opened to the public in the summer of 1965 and is now home to more than 400 animals, also features around 300 species of plants and trees, approximately a third of which are native to the Great Plains region. The Zoo is a Nebraska Statewide Arboretum Landscape Steward Affiliate Site.

Sunken Gardens, Rotary Strolling Garden, Hamann Rose Garden & Cascade Fountain:
Zach Halley, Public Gardens District Supervisor for Lincoln Parks & Recreation, along with his staff, will provide tours of the Sunken Gardens, Rotary Strolling Garden, Hamann Rose Garden and Cascade Fountain.

Conveniently located next to the Lincoln Children’s Zoo, attendees will learn about the history of these unique gardens as well as the design, implementation and maintenance of the gardens. This year’s theme of the Sunken Gardens is “Golden Hours.” Formerly a neighborhood dumpsite, this 1.5 acres was first developed in 1930, and has been transformed into an iconic feature of Lincoln.

Pioneers Park Nature Center:
The afternoon’s presentation and tour will highlight the history of Nature Center grounds and facilities, their habitat and land management, including their garden and trail areas, and the Prairie Corridor.

Pioneers Park Nature Center encompasses 668 acres of tallgrass prairie, woodlands, wetlands and a tributary stream of Salt Creek. Since 1963 the Nature Center has served the Lincoln area as an environmental education center and wildlife sanctuary. More than ten miles of hiking trails wind through various habitats, gardens, historic buildings, and a small herd of bison. The Prairie Building was the first building in Lincoln to be Leed Certified and features a green roof and rainwater harvesting infrastructure. September is a perfect time to visit the prairie.
