✨ You're invited! ✨Join us for the first public Visitors' Day in over 20 years to tour the restricted-access research areas of the KU Field Station!
Members of the public will be welcomed "behind-the-scenes" at the KU Field Station to visit ongoing research projects in areas that are not normally accessible to the public. Stations will be set up along a ¾ mile gravel "Research Road" that travels from the Armitage Education Center to the Frank B. Cross Reservoir. Visitors will be able to walk at their own pace and talk with researchers who will be stationed along the road, ready to share their work with visitors.
Feel free to walk the entire road, or just part way. It's up to you! Locally grown teas from native plants will be available to keep you refreshed and hydrated along the way.
Limited edition 75th anniversary shirts will be available for sale while supplies last!
When: Saturday, October 5, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.
Where: KU Field Station, 350 Wild Horse Road, Lawrence, Kansas 66044
What to bring: Shoes made for walkin'!
No RSVP is needed, but please check our social media pages for weather updates. The original April event was canceled due to spring storms, so we’re hoping for beautiful fall weather on October 5! 🍂
