Horsepen Creek I

This project was previously known as Project 018 and then resubmitted as Project 030.

This 45+ acre property is directly across a county road from a property that was protected last year.  Together, these two properties would conserve more than 75 contiguous acres of mature bottomland and upland forest and over 1.5 miles of stream and creek frontage.  The property is completely undeveloped and contains a great diversity of habitats.
