About Elliott-Patchett Nature Preserve
The Elliott-Patchett Nature Preserve is located on 34 acres of land located in Vernon Township, Shiawassee County, Michigan. The land, which slopes down to the river, is made up of three eco-systems.

The main part of land is an old wood lot, which was used by the Elliott family whenever wood was needed at their farm. The next piece, which had been cleared at one time for farming, now supports all types of pine trees. The third piece, used mainly as an access road for both humans and cattle, was also the Elliott family's source for gravel.

Recreational opportunities here include: hiking, wildlife observation, fishing.

To visit the Elliott-Patchett Preserve, take the exit for M-71 to Vernon off I-69. Turn right on Vernon Road off M-71 and look for the Elliott-Patchett Preserve sign on the left after you pass Goodall Road. Park off the road near the sign. You can access the preserve and the river by walking along the treeline to the woods. From [|Elliot-Patchett Nature Preserve web site]
