Exploring Otsego Marsh

  • Otsego Marsh 3382 Old County Road F Rio, WI United States (map)

Have you had a chance to explore Otsego Marsh? Join us to walk through and talk about the wetland scrapes and the wetland planting on the land that was purchased in summer of 2020. You’ll get to see some of the plants and animals that already exist there, and envision what the property will look like once fully restored. We hope to also find some odonates (dragonflies and damselflies). Then, we will walk the trail east of the parking lot and talk about the site history, plant communities, and wildlife.
