EcoStation - Environmental Exhibit

Eco Station Exhibit

EcoStation has reopened!

EcoStation is an active, outdoor/indoor environmental exhibit where visitors engage in ecological studies and explore environmental issues by visiting a native plant garden, a woodland area, the bayou table, the pond and a research pavilion.  Through these and several other exhibit areas, visitors can participate in diverse hands-on activities such as stream bed creation, insect collecting, tree rubbings, footprint identification, and more! 

Visitors may also participate in always-changing programming that includes nature journals, water quality testing, decomposition observations, soil type explorations, home environmental awareness inventory logs, bird feeders and many more activities that can be used in the exhibit areas or even taken home for further backyard experiences!

Plus, almost all of EcoStation is now powered by solar energy – come and see how we’re using it and learn more about solar power in an exhibit developed in partnership with industry expert Standard Renewable Energy.

Sponsored by ConocoPhillips, Garden Club of Houston & the Newfield Foundation.
