About this event
You can enjoy a summer evening at Shepard Farm with a family-friendly look at the night sky in Cottage Grove. This outdoor gathering brings you a chance to learn about the solar system, explore telescopes, and pick up a star map to use at home. The setting is a great fit for families who like hands-on learning and a relaxed Minnesota night under the stars.
Good to know
- Bring a park vehicle permit if one is normally required for the site, since the astronomy program itself is free but park entry may not be.
