Shop Forest Preserve Visitor Centers For 'Green' Gifts

While you are out and about shopping this holiday season, consider stopping by a Forest Preserve District of Will County visitor center to peruse and possibly purchase some green or nature-themed gifts.

Three visitor centers –Four Rivers Environmental Education Center in Channahon, Isle a la Cache Museum in Romeoville, and Plum Creek Nature Center in Crete Township – are stocked with a variety of unique items that could make the perfect present for someone on your list, or even yourself.

The facilities also have gift cards available that can be used for camping or picnicking permits, program fees, shelter rentals and more either online or in person. (Gift cards also are sold at the Sugar Creek Administration Center in Joliet.)

Gift shop items include reusable straws, nature-themed toys and jewelry, plantable lollipop sticks that grow into herbs or flowers, Christmas ornaments from around the world and bird-friendly coffee.
