Hatcheries, Visitor Centers, Education Centers
Visit one of our hatcheries or visitor/education
centers in the state. At Fish and Game's fish hatcheries, learn
about how fish are hatched and reared. All hatcheries are open year-round,
8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Guided tours are available by reservation. The
Twin Mountain and Warren hatcheries also have educational centers.
These hatcheries are staffed by a dedicated, hardworking group of
individuals who not only understand the technical challenges of
raising fish... they also love to fish themselves!

The Discovery Room
The Discovery Room at Fish and Game's Concord headquarters is a
window on New Hampshire's great outdoors... complete with a life-sized
moose cow and her calf!
 |
| Cow and calf moose -- two of the many
critters you'll find at Fish and Game's Discovery Room. |
The new room shows an array of New
Hampshire landscapes that are so realistic that children and adults
alike will forget that they're getting an education. These landscapes
include a pond, stream, beaver pond, meadow, woodland, vernal pool,
boreal (spruce/fir) forest, and even a typical back yard.
Come to Fish and Game's Concord
headquarters at 11 Hazen Drive and check it out! The Discovery Room
is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays. Groups should call
first to make arrangements -- 603-271-3211.
