Cache Creek Nature Preserve Visitor Center Community Ideas and Input Survey
Yolo County, in partnership with the Cache Creek Conservancy, is seeking your input on the design (see photos below) of the proposed Cache Creek Conservancy visitor center located at the Cache Creek Nature Preserve (34199 County Road 20, Woodland, CA). The existing Preserve is a 130-acre complex of wetlands, oak woodlands, grasslands, and creekside lands. The proposed visitor center will include expanded space for educational events and workshops, natural and cultural exhibits, 12 miles of new trails with amenities, and 30 new visitor parking spaces. Your feedback will help with our planning to ensure this new amenity will serve a broad representation of our community and increase visits to the Preserve.

You may view additional photos of the current design here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1EKo3SuRbrmP7cWo7jZlpqZBKD-mTsL5s?usp=sharing 

All survey participants will have the opportunity to attend an invitation-only sunset bird watching tour at the Cache Creek Nature Preserve. Please include your name and email at the bottom of the survey if you are interested in attending.
