Love going by and seeing all the hard work that the staff does! They really know their stuff! The place is beautiful and I can't wait to see the ebony trail 10 years from now! It's a great hidden gem and the programs are all so creative and enriching.

Very nice and well kept little Nature Center within the city limits. We went for the Eclipse, and the staff was very upbeat and courteous.

One of the great "hidden" spots in McAllen. A beautiful space just off the highway. We regularly attend yoga class for the last several years and it is a bright spot in our work week. A fantastic place for bird and spider watching. A lovely spot of green in the world of concrete
