The Scotch Ridge
Center is an area along the North River at the HWY 5 gateway to
Carlisle that is being developed as a place for celebrating,
preserving and learning about the area's unique environmental
and cultural heritage. It's primary feature is an extremely rare
transect of four distinct soil-based ecosystems: a
riparian
wetland, a riparian woodland, an upland prairie and an
oak savannah,
all within walking distance of one another.
The center will provide a
learning center and repository for historical data, artifacts
relating to the native inhabitants and first settlers of the
area, and the history of Northeast Warren County. |
