Protected natural area with 2 miles of trails, a picnic area & an 1890s living history farm.

👍👍 Great little place for a short walk. Volunteers work very hard to keep the land in it's *almost* original condition, keeping native plants in, invasive ones out, and monitoring wildlife. One of the few places you can see what Illinois would have looked like if we hadn't destroyed it, So be respectfu...
