WALK WITH DINOSAURS
DINOSAURS DISCOVERED HERE!
Here at the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm, you’ll enter a 200 million-year-old ecosystem that was once home to dinosaurs, fishes, plants, and more. Besides the actual fossils, you won’t want to miss the five life-sized models of prehistoric animals and the working fossil preparation lab.

ADMISSION
2025 Substation Quarry Excavation
In March 2025, paleontologists and volunteers from St George Dinosaur Discovery Site started excavating bone beds right across the street from the current museum. Thank you to the City of St. George for agreeing to move the substation! As of April 30, we have closed the dig site for the summer so that our team can catalog and start preparing the more than a thousand fossils we unearthed. Learn more about this incredible project on our Excavation page.

Field-tour and fossil-finding adventure!
Come unearth fossils at the quarry. Start at the museum to get a behind-the-scenes tour of our fossil prep lab where you’ll learn about the fossils you could find. Then head over to the quarry site and learn about its significance to Utah paleontology. After a safety and tool-use brief, spend 2 hours digging and discovering fossils. We hope you have a blast, learning about our area’s ancient past and playing in the dirt looking for fossils!
