Palmer H. Lewis Memorial Sanctuary

24 Acres
Old Post Road (Route 121), Town of Bedford, New York

The Palmer H. Lewis Sanctuary is the Society's smallest property. The upland area consists of a dry rocky hillside with mature mountain laurel, large oaks and hickories. Eastern Coyote, Barred Owl, and Wood Thrush are present in the woodlands. The roadside area has a small field that is maintained for butterflies and bluebirds.

Since the Sanctuary is so small, there is only one trail leading into it.

Directions:
Take Route 35 to Route 121 South approximately three miles to the intersection of Pea Pond Road and Route 121. The Sanctuary is just north of this intersection.
