Tree conservation in Chester, Pennsylvania

The Natural Lands' Binky Lee Preserve, located at 1445 Pikeland Road in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania, is a beautiful park and tourist attraction that is dedicated to returning former agricultural land back to its natural state of woodlands and meadows. With over two decades of restoration efforts, the preserve now boasts more than 50,000 native trees that have been planted to expand wooded areas and provide critical forest habitat for wildlife. The original 89-acre farm, donated to Natural Lands in 1989, has been supplemented with a 23-acre addition in 2008. Visitors can explore the historic barn dating back to the early 1800s and learn about the conservation efforts taking place on the property. By supporting Natural Lands, visitors can help save open space, care for nature, and connect people to the outdoors. The preserve also offers volunteer opportunities, educational programs, and information on combatting light pollution to protect the nighttime ecosystem.
