Free Fall Fun at Ansonia Nature Center's Autumn Festival

Autumn time is here, and the Ansonia Nature and Recreation Center invites you to its annual Autumn Festival.

Celebrate this wonderful season with the staff and the Friends of the Ansonia Nature Center (FANCI). Walk our haunted trail to the Goldenrod Maze and play games at the picnic pavilion before boarding the horse-drawn wagon ride. Enjoy lunch from one of our food vendors, and be sure to stop by our table to purchase apple cider donuts and pressed cider. Learn about creepy crawly animals from one of our naturalists, visit the Nature Shop to buy nature-related items, and enter our living history encampment to chat with one of the Revolutionary War soldiers. This festival will feature nature-related exhibitors, vendors, and a live animal petting zoo. You can decorate a pumpkin, make original crafts, and even have your face painted. All proceeds will benefit the Nature Center’s upcoming projects. There is no park admission fee. Sponsored in part by the Friends of the Ansonia Nature and Recreation Center and the City of Ansonia. RAIN DATE: Sunday, October 20th. Call us for more information at 203-736-1053.
