Step back in time at a local favorite! This conservation area boasts miles of woodland trails, a large pond home to waterfowl, winding creeks with cute bridges, and an original homestead dating back to the 1800's. The many outbuildings are open during the summer and are filled with antique farming equipment and tools. A photographer's dream. Check their website for events such as the annual corn roast, outdoor music, and family fun days. One of my most cherished hiking spots of all time.
