  • Known as a supergeneralist species, it's the most adaptable of any North American species growing on the widest variety of sites and greatest range of conditions
  • Seeds are like tiny helicopters that spin as they fall to the ground each autumn
  • Usually one of the first trees to flower in the spring

  • Hike a wooded path into this lush area that has a secluded, private feel
  • Explore unique terrain with glacial history and filtered lake views
  • Wander along natural wildlife habitat and near blooming wildflowers in spring

Fern Haven is an immersive wilderness experience. You reach it by hiking a wooded path through lush ferns and a swath of diverse trees that create a dense forest canopy. 

Deep in the woods with trails winding through gentle slopes, this section offers a sense of privacy. It’s perfect for enjoying moments of quiet reflection.

The middle of the section borders a steep natural preserve, protecting habitat for local wildlife.

The trees on the section’s eastern edge have filtered lake views.
