• This property was the creation of A.J. Metzger, a man who had a great deal of respect and love for nature.
• In the 1920s he directed the digging (by hand) of a network of streams and ponds on the grounds. This was to support a fish hatchery.
• He also built shelters and pens for exotic birds and wildlife.
• The hard sulphur waters would not support young fish.
• In 1969, we purchased this beautiful park as a site for our main office (since relocated to Formosa, ON).
• This property is a combination of a Conservation Area and Managed Forest.
