The George Forrest family donated five acres of land in 2002 to the Seneca County Park District, which enabled enabled the park district to secure a Clean Ohio grant to acquire a total of 23.5 acres.
An additional 23.4 acres was acquired in the same manner in 2011. This created our current 47-acre Forrest Nature Preserve.
Thanks to the Forrest family and our many dedicated volunteers, this riparian preserve further advances the park district mission.
