Living in an urban area like Grand Rapids may lead people to believe conservation efforts to preserve natural resources are far away, but places like Saul Lake Bog Nature Preserve prove differently. A lot of work goes into managing the environment of nature preserves like Saul Lake Bog, a 120-acre piece of land made up of mostly bog habitat. A bog is a special type of wetland that has acidic water, which means only certain plants and animals can live there. Learn how organizations like the Land Conservancy of West Michigan work to keep the land safe, clean, and thriving.
Saul Lake Bog Nature Preserve is located near 10471 Six Mile Road in Rockford. For more information visit naturenearby.org.
