why protecting land matters
Every acre we save cleans and cools the air we breathe, soaks up floodwaters, provides wildlife with habitat, filters the water we drink, and brings humans improved health and joy.

natives are nice
Native plants feed native insects, which are the foundation of life on this planet. Every yard, garden, and patio pot needs more natives.

About the property
Crow’s Nest’s forests are filled with oak, hickory, tuliptree, black gum, beech, and maple trees. The preserve’s meadows feature native grasses and wildflowers, while the tradition of Chester County farming continues in areas dedicated to agriculture.
Crow’s Nest is part of Hopewell Big Woods, a vast, unbroken forest about 114 square miles—almost the size of the City of Philadelphia. Just next door, you’ll find French Creek State Park and Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site, making Crow’s Nest part of one of the largest areas of protected land in the region.
parking
Crow’s Nest Preserve has one gravel parking lot with 20 spaces.
visitor hours
