West Michigan's Hidden Treasure

Last week I received 'The Gull Lake News' and was thrilled to find the ad for 'Kellogg Biological Station'.

We all get junk mail/things we didn't sign up for, but I got a good one in the mail. The 'Gull Lake News', made it's way to me and I was thrilled to read about the 'Kellogg Biological Station'.

I had no idea what a wonderful and beautiful area we had right here in our backyard! I discovered the Kellogg Biological Station located on East Gull Lake in Hickory Corners.

KBS.MSU.edu website describes the area...

"The W.K. Kellogg Biological Station is Michigan State University’s largest off-campus education complex and one of North America’s premier inland field stations."

The Kellogg Biological Station is gem in our community, the website explains it best!

"Michigan State University’s W.K. Kellogg Biological Station is a place where people come to increase their understanding of natural and managed ecosystems and their linkages to society. Our extraordinary people engage with and educate the community. They conduct world-changing research, and they never stop learning and evolving. With nearly a century of experience, we’re moving full steam ahead."
