1 Dana Boyle Tamarack Nature Preserve A basic Field Guide to a rare rich fen and its surrounding woodland trails, located in Woodbury, Minnesota By Dana Boyle This unique wetland nature preserve, located in the thriving Twin Cities suburb of Woodbury, Minnesota, features an amazing diversity of marsh and woodland plants as well as resident animals. It also serves as a habitat for migrating songbirds and waterfowl in the spring and fall. From a human standpoint, the preserve is a valued sanctuary for people of all ages seeking to relax and refresh, exercise and gain inspiration from nature - no matter the season. Located on Tower Drive, just north of Valley Creek Road, the Preserve - which is free to visitors - has well-maintained trails that pass through forests, as well as two floating boardwalks that cross the primary water feature - called a rich fen (a marshy area that is much like a bog). The fen is believed to have been created roughly 10,000 years ago, when glaciers receded from the area. It features quaking peat moss as well as hummocks upon which grow a wide variety of sedges, grasses, rushes and flowering marsh plants, in addition to the deciduous conifers after which the Tamarack Nature Preserve is named. Community leaders, to their credit, developed a plan to
2 protect this rare wetland system from the results of suburban growth. Citizens and visitors are encouraged to experience the Preserve and learn what makes it such a treasure. For more information on the Tamarack Nature Preserve, including a map and topographical depiction of the fen and forest, visit this link to a brochure produced by the Ramsey-Washington Watershed District (under Managed Sites ): Peaceful ponds and flowing streams provide refuge for waterfowl and amphibians. Easily accessible hiking and cross-country ski trails through the fen and the surrounding woods are maintained yearround. This is one of the region s most southerly habitats for the tamarack tree - a rare deciduous conifer

10 Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature -- the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter. Rachel Carson, Silent Spring Visitor Notes Date:
