Join us to learn about the connection between land conservation and water protection while enjoying this high-ranking wildlife habitat. A conservation priority of Brentwood for many years because of its risk for development, the DeYoung-Fralic property was acquired by SELT in 2017. It consists of 105 acres and 3,700 feet of pristine river-frontage along the Exeter River. The site was a former gravel pit that had been closed by Brentwood but was restored for wildlife habitat. The area provides valuable water protection and a wildlife corridor as well as includes priority focus areas for local, state, and federally-protected bodies of water. This walk will be led by forester Phil Auger with an anticipated length of approximately 1.5 miles.
