 Mini Zip Lines 

Exclusively for guests under 5' in height, these 70' tandem zip lines are the number one group favorite at ECO Center.  Admission to the fall festival includes unlimited zip line rides. 

Junkyard Playground & Ninja Warrior Obstacles

One man's junk is another's treasure.  Our simple yet innovative playground put otherwise discarded material to good use. 

Giant Tube Slide and gerbil Wheel

Roll around the property in a 5 foot tall drain tile “gerbil wheel” and race down the 15 foot tube slide. The gerbil wheel is a family favorite.

FARM ANIMALS

Enjoy feeding and spending time with our friendly livestock. You can purchase goat feed for $0.25/handful.  They will greet you anxiously at the feeder. If they are out and about you may also get a chance to interact with our three lovable cats Diego, Jack Jack and Blue.

Fire Pit  

Sit around a cobble stone fire pit in the woods and relax with the sound of song birds; enjoying the fall temperatures or sit up front where all the action is. Roast a S’mores or hot dog from the concession stand.

Interpretive Wooded Trail & Scavenger Hunt

Most of the answers to the scavenger hunt can be found inside our 3-acre woods.  Enjoy a leisurely stroll with your family observing nature on our trail.  Make sure you take the time to read the numerous interpretive signs placed strategically throughout the woods.

ECO Train 

This classic barrel train is a fun ride constructed out of up-cycled 55-gallon drums.  It is fabricated to hold children and adults who want to take an infant on board.  Buckle up and enjoy the ride!  It is a scenic way to see the festival and pick out your pumpkin on the move.

Chicken Run

 Enjoy watching and feeding our flock of hens.  Can you guess which ones lay green and blue eggs? Meet Bruce, our handsome homegrown rooster.

Nature Programs

Enjoy several opportunities throughout the day to participate in our scheduled naturalist programs. Learn about local wildlife, habitats, pollinators and more.
