Nature's Potpourri Summer Field Trip Series #3: Bohn Farms Glacial Habitat Restoration Area

  • Bohn Farm Glacial Habitat Restoration Area 9500 County Rd B Winneconne, WI United States (map)

Join Winnebago Audubon for three summer field trips, one per month, in June, July and August led by Anita Carpenter. The focus is to discover whatever nature presents including birds, flowers, trees, insects and more.

Bohn Farms is an 80-acre Glacial (Prairie) Habitat Restoration Area, located west of Winneconne near Lake Poygan. Lots to discover here. I hope to find the wandering glider dragonfly, an amazing insect. There are no defined trails here - expect to walk about a mile.

Directions: From Oshkosh, take Hwy 41 North to Hwy 45 North.  Take the Hwy 116/County Rd GG exit toward Winneconne.  Turn left onto County Rd GG/Hwy 116 South.  Follow Hwy 116 through Winneconne until you reach County Road D.  Turn right on County Road D.  Travel approximately 7 miles and then turn right on County Rd B.  We will meet in the parking area off to your right adjacent to Welsch Rd.  There is limited space in the parking area (9500 Co Rd B), so please plan on parking along Welsch Rd.
