Located in the heart of Green Tree at the corner of Hillcrest Ave. and Crestmont Dr., the Green Tree Nature Center is easily accessible for a quick reset— whether an early-morning visit, a lunch break or an after-work walk to get your steps in.
The 18-acre oasis features plenty of native plants and flora in its forested area, along with lots of wildlife. On any given day, you might see rabbits, gray squirrels, gray foxes, white-tailed deer, and a menagerie of beautiful birds, including northern cardinals, blue jays, mourning doves, Baltimore orioles, great horned owls and maybe even a wild turkey.
