Corn Husk Dolls, Potato Creek State Park

Join the Naturalist at the Nature Center for a chance to create this fun ol' toy craft created from weaving husks. This craft originated with the Native Americans and was later adopted by early settlers to Potato Creek for children's enjoyment. Supplies are limited and will be given on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Our interpretive programs are designed to entertain and enrich folks of all ages. Children under 12 must have an adult with them at programs.

Registration is not required for this program.

All our programs are free (unless otherwise noted). They are open to the public after paying the park entrance fee. ($7 in-state & $9 out-of-state)

All our Interpretive programs are listed in Eastern Time.

The Nature Center's Hours in November:

Open Wednesdays-Sunday 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. ET. Closed Monday and Tuesday.

*Note that during peak visitation times, entry into our park might be delayed. Parking lots around the Nature Center can fill quickly. The Nature Center is located approximately 10 minutes from our park's main entrance gate. Please plan accordingly.
