World Forestry Center

001
  The importance of old growth forests for the biodiversity of plant and animal life is just one of the topics covered in this museum. Interactive displays and hands-on exhibits  also cover recreation, forestry jobs, and restoration of forest lands.

  Most of the museum is accessible but some of the hands-on exhibits have steps or inaccessible seating.

   The museum is located in Washington Park near the zoo and children’s museum. The parking lot next to the children’s museum is the only nearby lot where oversized vehicles are permitted to park. Spaces may not be available as this park is very popular. A long, slightly uphill sidewalk and ramp lead to the Forestry Center. Museum
