Access to Post Farm Marsh is not intuitive. The parking lot is next to a solar field at the end of Willow Creek Road. View Map

The marsh is a very productive hotspot in Berkshire County with opportunities for unique birds year-round.

Winter:
In the winter months, Post Farm Marsh tends to be a good place to get Barred Owls and Saw-whet Owls.

Spring/Summer:
In the early spring, Post Farm Marsh is a reliable spot to find American Woodcock due to an abundance of shrubby forest/field edge habitat just south of the marsh. As migration starts to pick up later in the spring, the marsh is a good place to find Rusty Blackbirds and migrating warblers. The following species can also be found in late spring, but will also sometimes breed at the marsh: Marsh Wrens, Sora, American Bittern (and Least Bittern if you are extremely lucky), and Virginia Rails.

Autumn:
Similar to spring migration, fall at Post Farm Marsh is also productive for warblers. Additionally, the autumn migration tends to be especially productive for waterfowl.

The Post Farm conservation property is owned by the Town of Lenox. It is 224 acres. The marsh is on Willow Creek. A railroad track is adjacent to the marsh.

Several trails that will bring you to a variety of habitats. There is a causeway that crosses Willow Creek which provides access to view the marsh.
