To protect and preserve
A small woods in Henry County has been a Purdue
research property for nearly 40 years. During the summer,
it also became a state-designated nature preserve.
The 34-acre Stout
Woods, which was given to
Purdue in 1964 by Sam and Stella Stout, has been kept from
farming and grazing use through five generations of the family.
In the past year, an interpretive trail for
school children was developed on the property by the Purdue
departments of Forestry
and Natural Resources and 4-H,
in cooperation with the Red-tail Conservancy and the Division
of Nature Preserves.
The preserve is open to the public. |
