The area is primarily forested, with oak, hickory, eastern red cedar, and other species native to the region common. Flag Spring, located on the west side of the property, flows year-round. Deer and squirrels are relatively abundant. Wild turkeys have been stocked on the area and are now present in good numbers. From Flag Spring Conservation Area web site
