March 8 Spring Valley Nature Center, Schaumburg

Sorry for the late posting. I'm in Tucson this week and I've been painting like I'm killing snakes. Anyway, with the Barns and Farms show coming up at the Barnsite Studio in Kewaunee, I thought the place in Schaumburg would be worth another go. Get your barns and farms at the Volkening Farm. If your not into the barnsy stuff, there is plenty else. I'll be back out a week from Saturday.

Spring Valley Nature Center is in Schaumburg, part of the Schaumburg Park District. There is a nature preserve and a "heritage farm" on the same property--Volkening Farm. The farm buildings will be closed on Saturday but the Nature Center opens at 9 a.m. We'll meet at the Nature Center (where there will be warmth) and fan out from there. The map above shows the layout of the area, although it's oriented with north toward the bottom of the page for some reason.

For directions, go here and scroll to bottom of the page. There is a link for directions. Mapquest directions are here.
