Sax-Zim Bog Welcome Center opens for winter

The Sax-Zim Bog Welcome Center re-opened for the winter on Sunday, December 1. The center, located in Toivola, Minnesota, allows people to talk to a naturalist, warm up by the stoves, shop, use the “World’s only Outhouse/Art Museum,” and set off for a hike.

“Pick up a map, study it and chart your course for exploration,” said Executive Director Spark Stensaas. “Check out the listing of upcoming field trips and perhaps dive in to a field of knowledge you may not know much about. Knowing more about the natural world helps us to honor and protect the land.”

The center will be open from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. everyday through March 9, with the exception of Christmas. Admission to the center is free.

The Sax-Zim Bog Welcome Center is located at 8793 Owl Avenue, Toivola, MN.
