Davey Woods State Nature Preserve is 103 acres with majestic oaks and tulip trees; excellent spring wildflowers. This mature forest woodland has numerous large tulip trees, sugar maple, ash, and oak as well as an excellent array of spring wildflowers. It is one of the best woodlots remaining in this part of Ohio. Named in honor of the Davey Tree Expert Company which, through The Nature Conservancy, provided half the funding to acquire this site in 1989. The terrain, hilly for this part of Ohio, offers pleasant summer hiking (no mosquitoes), nice fall colors, and a beautiful winter landscape.
