Lace up your shoes and join us for an unforgettable adventure followed by food and drinks.

Exploration Green provides an integrated, natural solution for catastrophic seasonal flooding holding up to 500-million-gallons of stormwater while also serving as a nature preserve and recreation area. Located near NASA’s Johnson Space Center, this 200-acre urban green space provides the community with countless opportunities to explore, offering 40 acres of both wetlands and permanent detention lakes, home to over 1,000 native species.

Please come dressed for the weather in comfortable clothing and sturdy shoes.
