No matter what time of year, it's always a lovely walk within these woods. Naturally, Spring gives you the most surprises as Oaks, Maples, Dogwood, Sweet Gum and others begin their transition to summer green. Oaks begin with bronzey-red opening buds and Maple forming seed clusters of nearly the same color. Others open with that traditional spring green. Watch. as you walk, for the bits of color of wild flowers. But you know that spring, in the south, is here when the Dogwood displays its showy white.

Summer walks are the cool green shady strolls of southern literature.

Fall colors abound from the yellow of the Tulip tree to the reds of Maple and russet of Oaks. The forest welcomes the fallen leaves that can lie undisturbed giving a softness to the forest floor.

Winter opens the canopy to the sky and reveals what has been hidden by the summer green. The pines persist with their green reminder that all is not asleep. Look forward to that rare snow and full winter moon to create a sparkling wonderland.
