A new park to the area but a good one! Paved trails allow those with disabilities to enjoy the great outdoors. Meandering through the woods, looking out across a small pond, and through a meadow there is tons to see. More information HERE
Brown's Lake Bog - Shreve, Ohio
One of the few remaining kettle hole bogs in Ohio. Follow the boardwalk from forest to ferns to a floating sphagnum mat showcasing 15 different rare or endangered plants. You can also find the unique native carnivorous round-leaf sundew and purple pitcher plants here! More information can be found at my blog HERE
OARDC - Secrest Arboretum - Wooster, Ohio
OARDC standing for Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center may seem like an odd addition, but I assure you, there are walking paths throughout various gardens and forested areas and you can find a wide range of birds enjoying the berries in the winter! More information can be found HERE
Johnson Woods State Nature Preserve - Marshallville, Ohio
Old growth forest with boardwalks take you through swampy lands where beautiful spring wildflowers grow daintily under massive ~400year old oak trees. A truly beautiful sight to behold. More information from the blog HERE
