Starkey Nature Park at 72 acres, is the largest park in Zionsville. Starkey Park is named for Lucile Starkey who bequeathed a major portion of the land to the Town in 1974 for use as a nature park.

The park features wooded bottom land along Eagle Creek, prairie meadow plantings through the power line right away and forest in mixture of growth patterns.

This project is a way for the Zionsville Parks and Recreation Department to gather a list of the plants and animals that utilize the habitats of Starkey Park both year round, seasonally or for different stages of their lives. The list of species gathered will provide background information for future conservation and educational programs. less ↑
