The Space
Unlike a park, the primary focus of a preserve is to protect native plants and wildlife. Although we are open to the public for hiking and educational opportunities, we do not offer as wide a variety of recreational opportunities as a park. Visitation and amenities at a preserve are limited in order to prevent deterioration of the land.
We welcome family visits! However, parties are not allowed.
