Arbor Day Celebrations

The Ankeny Hill Nature Center is hosting a free 150th Arbor Day Celebration, Saturday, April 30th, from 10am-4pm. Everyone is Welcome!

Participate in outdoor activities that celebrate native trees and their surprising secrets! Enjoy tree related crafts; explore tree remains in the Nature Explore area; take a tree discovery walk on the trails and more!

Wonderful trees provide cooling shade, clean our air, filter our water, and even prevent flooding in our cities.

Free native trees and shrubs will be available to the first 100 visitors!

This year marks the 150th anniversary of the tree planter’s holiday, and we’re excited to celebrate with you!

New Volunteer Orientation

The onsite orientation includes a walk around Gehlar (Gaylar) Hall, a guided walk of the Little Loop Trail surrounding the Nature Explore Area, a tour of the Volunteer Basecamp, and more information about volunteer options associated with the Center. Should you choose to continue with the volunteer process, there is paperwork (of course!)

Please allow up to 3.5 hours and dress for the outdoors. We will provide additional resources via email to help you prepare for the onsite orientation. The pre-reading may shorten the time needed for the onsite orientation.
