Melissa Schultz Nature Preserve

Melissa Schultz Nature Preserve The Melissa Schultz Nature Preserve entails over five acres of woods and meadow, with a ravine and creek that feed into Little Apple Creek.

The Melissa Schultz Nature Preserve aims to expose children and families to the magic of nature, to demonstrate and teach the principles of environmental sustainability, and to memorialize the life of Melissa Schultz, scientist and environmentalist. It memorializes Melissa M. Schultz, amazing scientist, educator, friend and mother, who was taken from us tragically last year. The property is immedi

ately adjacent to the Montessori School of Wooster and connects to Gerstenslager Park and the Martin Cabin to the north. The College of Wooster, which owns the property, has granted the Montessori School long-term use of the property as a nature preserve. If you’d like to participate in the development of the nature preserve, please contact Greg Shaya, Director ([email protected]), April Gamble, Volunteer Coordinator ([email protected]), Mid White, Naturalist ([email protected]), Angie Bos, MSNP Committee ([email protected]), Jason Frank, MSNP Committee ([email protected]), Sarah Davis, MSNP Committee ([email protected]), or Jim Bonk, MSNP Committee ([email protected]).
