Special COVID-19 Considerations: As you prepare for your visit, just a little guidance to ensure your visit is safe for your family and ours. We continue to follow CDC and state COVID-19 recommendations and guidelines to set policies for the safety and protection of our visitors, volunteers, and employees.

• Masking is optional at The Wetlands Institute and we respect individual choice related to mask wearing.  
• To the extent possible, please adhere to social distancing guidelines (6 feet apart or more for The Wetlands Institute staff and/or other program participants) in all areas of The Wetlands Institute both inside and outside.
• We recommend face coverings be worn when social distancing is not possible and/or when interacting with The Wetlands Institute staff and/or other visitors.
• For the safety of others, please do not visit The Wetlands Institute if you are feeling ill or running a fever.

Note: The Wetlands Institute is a natural conservation area where outside animals would be a disturbance to local wildlife that inhabits this area. Because of this, pets are not allowed inside Institute buildings or outside on Institute property, including the Salt Marsh Trail, elevated walkway, and dock. Service dogs are welcome as they have been trained to not react to other animals.

We look forward to seeing you soon for a safe, family friendly visit to The Wetlands Institute.
