The Nature Reserve reopens June 16, 2020.
Missouri Botanical Garden members may enjoy a special preview week June 9-15. 

The health and safety of staff and visitors is the primary concern for Shaw Nature Reserve. Under guidance from the CDC and local health departments, we are reopening while still taking into account social distancing and safety precautions, including the requirement of dated and timed tickets for entry. All admission reservations/purchases must be made in advance.
