Benny in WayzWoodz
This woods is a miracle of nature.
The Trilliums in this maple sugar bush - hardwoods forest - go for perhaps 100 acres.
You will hear many different birds, tree frogs, the rustle of garter snakes, and perhaps a car in the distance once in a while, but for the most part it is the most purely serene place in Prince Edward County.
The farm's wagon trail takes you through the woods to the back as it winds along, and before the leaves come out on the hardwoods, you will see Spring Beauty beside or under the Trilliums, as well, and Hepatica, and Wild Oats, true Flox which isn't out yet, Violets, yellow Trout Lily, and many more wild treasures that are fast disappearing under the blades of the ever increasing army of lawnmowers.
What industry doesn't destroy, the lawns and homes do, or the farmer's tractors raze.
That's why biking is such a wonderful activity. You will get to see the last of the wild flowers, the birds, animals, and insects. Your grandchildren may not.
