Spoon River Solar Farm Learning Center

  Geared towards children, this cute little outdoor exhibit is located across from the 500 kW Spoon River Solar Farm on Route 24. Easy to understand signs explain how solar power works. There’s a tractor to climb on, a bell to ring, and a couple of dioramas with switches to turn. 

     
  Loose gravel in the parking lot and a thick layer of wood chips makes rolling around very difficult. All of the exhibits are easy to view from a seated position.

  The parking lot is large enough for any RV.  Center  40.2751, -90.23412

  1. I dunno, maybe we'll skip this one. Who knows when we'll next get to Illinois anyway.
