The Hoffman Preserve is called “evergreen” for a reason: the original owner planted his land with many different kinds of evergreens, which provide great sheltered areas for lots of different wildlife. In between the stands of evergreens grew deciduous forests of beech and oak. Over the decades, the forests have matured and are now a great home for many kinds of deep forest life that depend on old wood. The area is crisscrossed by old stone walls, a colonial highway and ancient stone structures, and is an ideal place for bird watching.
