WMS Map: Lowville Forestry Demostration Area
About Lowville Forestry Demostration Area ....
The Lowville Forestry Demonstration Area is located on 98 acres at the former NYS Lowville Tree Nursery. The nursery was in operation from approximately 1923 to 1971 and during that time, a total of 530 million seedlings were produced. A demonstration forest was created here by planting trees together in blocks based on species. Demonstration forests are used to show how different species of trees grow and look together. https://www.dec.ny.gov/lands/8075.html
