Over the past several years community members have gathered at this 80-acre preserve along North Jacob Miller Road to lead a concerted attack against invasive holly. Since then, our dedicated preserve stewards have been working hard at identifying new patches, and it is time to rally the troops again!
We’ll focus on hand-pulling and cutting holly in this mature forested preserve crisscrossed with user-generated trails. We’ll also tackle some trail trimming to keep the paths looking good! This Preserve is part of the 3-mile long Quimper Wildlife Corridor that’s gradually being protected by Jefferson Land Trust, the City of Port Townsend, and Jefferson County to support wildlife movement, wetlands, water quality, and bird habitat.
Directions: Quimper West Preserve is located on North Jacob Miller Road, near the end of the road. Please bike or walk if possible, due to limited parking.
