The preserve woodlands are composed dominantly of red oak, hemlock and pine, a habitat favored by warblers, woodpeckers, and owls. The trails lead back through the forest to a salt marsh on the northern end of Sagadahoc Bay. On the way they pass an old quarry once mined for feldspar which was used as an abrasive in porcelain manufacture.
The Preserve is open free of charge to the public from dawn to dusk. Help us protect what you have come to enjoy. Natural areas are delicate; foot traffic only; stay on trails and off abutting private property; no camping, fires or motorized vehicles. Dogs must be on leash, and please clean up after your pet. Enjoy your visit!
