OUR LITTLE NATURE CENTER AT ROOTS

Every Tuesday hundreds of visitors come by our little 10 x 10 Nature center at Root's Country Market near Manheim, PA.  To each child who visits we offer a Creator Card.  These cards are nature pics that are collectible like sports cards etc.  They are standard collectible card size and therefor fit in the same pages and holders as baseball cards and others.  We are distributing nearly 125 cards a week and estimate that about 60 children are collecting them regularly.  Each card is a reminder that we should remember our Creator while learning about and enjoying His creation.

We change our display wall about every 4 to 5 weeks.  Our displays have featured wildflowers, birds, trees, the monarch butterfly life cycle, the cecropia moth life cycle, insects from all over the world and more.  Recently we are displaying a small part of the large collection of insects that have been given to us by Klaus Neuwald.

Our display at Root's will change this week.  The name of the display is "THE 17 YEAR CICADA ARE COMING"   Come and visit 9 am to 9 pm every Tuesday.
