The McClenny Acres Conservation Mitigation Easement is a beautiful, open, native wetland landscape that was re-established from from agricultural fields by restoring the natural flow of agricultural ditches and removing berm material.

The Easement Property also includes one small unnamed tributary that flows through the native wetland grasses. The Easement Property is already showing signs of ecological uplift with many species of birds hunting in the wetland pools and grasses.
