📣 YES—TONIGHT’S PAWPAW PROGRAM IS STILL ON! 🌳
We’ve received a few messages today asking if tonight’s Pawpaw Presentation is still happening, and we wanted to make sure everyone knows:
YES! We’re still on for tonight!
🌳 Pawpaw Presentation
🕡 6:30 PM TONIGHT
📍 Mosquito Lake Nature Center Complex
With the weather, we’ll be moving the presentation INSIDE the Education Center, so you can stay dry and comfortable while learning about one of Ohio’s most interesting native trees!
⚠️ Please note: Indoor seating is limited, so we recommend arriving a little early if you’d like to guarantee yourself a seat.
Come learn about the pawpaw, its history, its connection to Ohio, and what makes this native tree so unique. And remember—the first 24 guests will receive a special pawpaw refreshment surprise! 😋🌿
Rain or shine, we’ll see you at 6:30!
