California Woods Nature Preserve- A Cincinnati Parks Forest
On December 7th, 2022, the Old-Growth Forest Network recognized California Woods Nature Preserve in Cincinnati, Ohio. Located in the eastern section of the city and within a stone’s throw of the Ohio River, California Woods offers Cincinnatians with the chance to escape busy urban life and enjoy the peace that comes from being in nature. Sitting at an impressive 113 acres in total, the preserve offers educational programming year-round for people of all ages. In the summer, visitors can enjoy a beautiful hummingbird and butterfly garden conveniently located right in front of the educational center. California Woods is Ohio’s 23rd forest to be included in the Old-Growth Forest Network and the first Network forest for Hamilton County, making it the 185th forest in total to be recognized.
