The Sac County Conservation Center will be hosting the traveling Smithsonian's display entitled "Listening to the Prairie; Farming in Nature's Image" until Christmas.  During this time the center will be open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The center will also be open from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Sundays from November 17 through December 22.

This is a unique display that follows several farm families and how they are farming in nature's image.  For more information or for special group tours call 712-662-4530.  This display is supported by funds from REAP.
