Fernald Preserve Visitors Center About Photo Gallery

The Fernald Preserve Visitors Center accommodates walk-in visitors, public and private programs, and community group meeting space reservations.

An award recognizing the visitors center’s LEED platinum green building status is displayed in the lobby.

The Feed Materials Production Center’s manufacturing ended in 1989 and the site’s mission changed to environmental remediation. Environmental sampling, analysis, facility demolition, waste disposal, and a close collaboration with the community and regulators returned the site to a natural state.

The visitors center is located near the center of today’s 1050-acre Fernald Preserve, which opened to the public as an undeveloped park with an emphasis on wildlife in 2008.
