Experience where nature and people collaborate to heal the land and build a stronger community. From wild trails through dense, majestic trees to a fascinating, historical-cultural triangle, the Herrontown Woods has something for the nature lover in all of us.
Our mission is to celebrate Herrontown Woods as a preserve where people of all ages enjoy, explore, and learn from nature, inspiring them to become its stewards.
Our vision is to restore and maintain the preserve’s trails and flora for posterity; to teach and learn about its natural and cultural heritage; and to build a center for people of all ages to creatively engage with nature, art, and history. All to honor the legacy of Oswald and Elizabeth Veblen, who gave their land and homesto create Princeton’s first nature preserve.
