For over 50 years, the 383 picturesque acres of For-Mar Nature Preserve & Arboretum have been wowing visitors, protecting wildlife and nurturing the environment. This former dairy farm was donated by Forbes and Martha Merkley to create For-Mar, which opened in 1970. For-Mar is home to Nature’s Superheroes, The Preservers. Visit their Superhero Headquarters – our new barrier free treehouse. You might even get lucky enough to catch a glimpse of one at a program or event – but remember, just like other superheroes, they only make appearances when they are needed. To download their comic book stories, visit our brochures and flyers download page.

In our Visitor’s Center, get a hands-on experience with live animals and learn how flora and fauna coexist in a healthy ecosystem. If you’re an educator, take a field trip with your school and explore Kearsley Creek as it twists through the park. Sign up for a guided walking tour with one of our naturalists today and learn how you can experience the great outdoors in a whole new way.
