Wild Roots Nature Center - Invidious

Wild Roots Nature Center

Wild Roots Nature Center sits on 369 beautiful acres in northern Illinois (Rockford, IL to be precise).

www.wildrootsnaturecenter.org

In July 2026, Severson Dells Nature Center changed our name to reflect that we will be operating at two locations- Severson Dells Forest Preserve and Prairie's Edge (the former Elliot Golf Course). You will see reference and branding associated with the Severson Dells name in many of our videos.
