| NEW HAMPSHIRE ZOOS Tucked above the shores of Squam Lake, Proctor Sanctuary in Centre Harbor is an excellent example of second generation woodlands. The entire 47 acres is covered with a good mix of white pine, red oak, yellow birch, beech, maples, and even a few black oaks. Two quiet streams meander through much of the property with trillium and partridge berries growing near their banks. Given to ASNH in memory of Jean K. Proctor of Centre Harbor in 1975, the Proctor Wildlife Sanctuary is a lovely spot for a spring wildflower or bird walk. Charmingfare Farm is home to many of the traditional agricultural animals you would expect to see on a farm. Children will enjoy the Oakhurst Dairy Discovery Barn , home to our large "hands-on" petting area. After visiting with the farm animals you will follow the paths leading into the woods and there you will encounter our wildlife exhibits, here you will find many of North America's greatest predators. Throughout the day various demonstrations, presentations and activities are offered. So be sure to pack a picnic lunch and spend the day with us at our farm and enjoy our animals. Don't forget your camera! |
