Since the 1920s, the Norris couple bought land along the North River and created a pine and oak forest for wildlife. A network of trails along the river and through the forest make the area accessible for walks and hikes through an idyllic landscape near the surrounding towns. https://thetrustees.org/place/norris-reservation/
