The Braman Preserve

 



Size: 71 acres
Location:

Town of Webster, Monroe County 

Description:

This Preserve is comprised of about 60 acres of successional field, previously farmed, and about 11 acres of mature forest. In the recent past, the property provided important successional field habitat for bobolinks and other birds, including migratory birds.

History:

The Braman Preserve was donated to Genesee Land Trust by Laurel Bruns and her brother, Gary Braman, in 2011.This gift is in honor of their grandparents, Eva and Harlan Braman.

 

Public Access:

Presently (as of January 2012) access is difficult due to the overgrown nature of the preserve, near the road. Genesee Land Trust will be working to slowly open trails for public use.

From 104 East, turn right onto Basket Road. Turn left onto Ridge Road, continue to follow Ridge Road. Bruns Property will be on the right, across the street from the intersection with Ridge Road Junction.
