About Harris Nature Center:
Situated along the Red Cedar River and within Meridian Riverfront Park, its focus is on protecting, promoting and interpreting the Red Cedar River through educational opportunities.
The nature center building offers educational displays and live animal exhibits, with 6 miles of trails, forest, meadows, wetlands and the banks of the Red Cedar River. HNC is the only nature center in Mid-Michigan dedicated to the preservation of the Red Cedar River.
