The stewardship of nearly 400 wooded acres for the purposes of conservation, education, recreation, and community engagement.
A community that feels a strong connection to the natural world and actively partners with us to promote the highest level of biodiversity possible for our natural areas.
We steward nearly 400 acres of forest land and wetland in order to protect, improve, restore, and sustain it as wildlife habitat.
We work to preserve and improve the quality of water resources (freshwater biomes) including riparian (streams and rivers) as well as ponds (including small seasonal vernal pools) and wetlands.
We strive to maintain the highest biodiversity possible on our land.
We maintain over seven miles of hiking trails for pleasure and exercise. We have many natural areas for birding & wildlife watching, like Pfister’s pond.
Nature Day
Celebrate the start of summer at our Nature Day Celebration! Join TNC Environmental Educators and our friends from other nature-friendly organizations for a safe, outdoor day of family fun.
See TNC’s amazing birds of prey, or slither on over to hang with a snake. Make nature art that Monet would be envious of or join the birds in filling the air with songs. Hit the pond on a canoe or join an Environmental Educator for a walk to learn about what our forest has to offer.
