Nature trails

Smell...see...hear...touch...taste...the bounty of God's creation as you walk our nature trails. Breathe in the fragrance of the forest and field. Watch for coyotes, fox, deer, great blue heron and other wildlife. Listen to the song of the indigo bunting, yellow-throated warbler, bluebird and cardinal. Touch the delicate textures of the wood fern and Queen Anne's Lace. Then taste the wild blackberries and mulberries or a flavorful apple from our orchard. We take special care of the land for the pleasure of today's guests and to preserve it for future generations.
