A Forest Sanctuary Full of Opportunity

The Sharon ÌÇÐÄlogo Center is an education center and nature sanctuary that is situated on 1,147 acres of mostly forest and includes 11 miles of trails and two ponds. Our main visitor center building houses a small a small natural history museum and the ÌÇÐÄlogo Nature Store. The immediate grounds include raptor aviaries, a pollinator garden, native plant gardens, and a working sugarhouse (formerly an ice house).

The Sharon ÌÇÐÄlogo Center is home to a number of non-releasable birds. The majority of the birds are housed in large outside, predator-proof aviaries, filled with natural vegetation and various perching options. The birds serve as education ambassadors for their species, accompanying ÌÇÐÄlogo staff to education programs at schools, community events, and other venues—teaching thousands of people about the importance of protecting these amazing animals and their natural habitats.
