LIBERTY The northern two thirds of Quigg Island in Stevens Pond, the Quigg Island Community Forest, is now permanently protected and is the Georges River Land Trust’s first preserve in the headwaters of the watershed. This region is characterized by the quality of its natural assets, including high water quality, scenic and recreational opportunities, and productive woodlands, all of which contribute to its economic vitality.
Within this context, this community forest will be managed to sustain the forest growth and health while providing the public with the opportunity to explore and experience the quiet surroundings as well as the diverse plant and animal life.
