Our fall family fun festival returns.

The Haunted Hollow provides a perfect Halloween atmosphere for everyone with a balance of laughs and gasps in a safe and fun environment.

We'll also have frightening foods and beverages for purchase. 

Costumes encouraged! 

Festivities

• A family hayride.
• A haunted cabin (but not too scary).
• Grilled hot dogs, brats, and hamburgers (for purchase) along with frightening desserts! 
• Interpretive nature walks. 
• A portable climbing wall, bouncy house, face painting, and more!
• Family games for children of all ages.
• Tickets for purchase for some of the events. 

Participants will also learn about and have the chance to hold snakes and other “creepy crawlers.”

Everything is family-friendly and suitable for all ages. Touch of Nature is wheelchair and stroller-accessible. A parent or guardian must accompany children to the event.

The Haunted Hollow will go on rain or shine, we encourage participants to dress accordingly for the day’s weather.
