Description
Fox Hollow Preserve, 26 acres This preserve consists of mature oak woods with a stand of white pine planted early in the last century. Four trails traverse the steep terrain. These hills were recently home to a family of foxes. Red-tailed and broad-winged hawks are often sighted and great horned owls are known to use the area.
