OKOBOJI, Iowa — Soil can be the mix of minerals, air, water and animals, and with the right equipment, soil can tell us who has been there before and who lives there now.
Soil houses an integrated community of living and non-living things that make up the ground.
July’s Family Nature Night begins at 5 p.m. Friday with an introduction to what is living under our feet. Participants can expect to be hiking, digging into the soil, and learning hands-on.
Attendees are encouraged to wear proper shoes and clothing for an evening outside on the land at the Dickinson County Nature Center.
Family Nature Night: Life Under the Soil will last approximately one hour and is free to the public. Please pre-register online at dickinsoncountynaturecenter.com.
