Ferris Street Forest and Nature Preserve spans 22 hectares of mature forest and wetland. The preserve protects white pine forests, marshy lowlands with creeks and cattails, and homes for beavers, muskrats, deer, owls, and threatened songbirds. The gentle trails are open to walking, jogging, birdwatching, or snowshoeing in winter, with dogs allowed on leash. The preserve is maintained through a partnership between the city and the Nature Trust of New Brunswick, and has a lot of help from the volunteer group Friends of Ferris Street.
