Madison County Conservation Center

The Madison County Conservation Center is a portal to the outdoors, providing an enriched understanding of our natural resources through education, exploration and recreation. It serves to foster care about the natural beauty of Madison County — a landform known as the Southern Iowa Drift Plain, where rolling hills were formed from glacial till and molded by wind-blown loess soils and scouring rivers and streams. Centrally located within Pammel State Park, the Conservation Center uses natural elements to tell a story about the legacy of our land and how it shaped our civilization.

The Conservation Center houses:

• Family-friendly, interactive natural resource exhibits that define the majestic beauty and historic geography of Madison County
• An unparalleled seminar room that accommodates large school groups and professional seminars, and provides community rental space for receptions and celebrations
• A low-maintenance, modern classroom, providing a much needed site for students involved in lab work and some indoor activities
• A board/small community room, appropriate for breakout sessions, small conference meetings, and after-hours small community discussions
• Offices, storage and other support facilities for the Madison County Conservation Board
