Rolling Ridge Conservancy works with local hunters to manage the deer population in our woods. We value our relationship with the hunters, who provide a necessary service in the absence of predators. Deer overpopulation leaves deer unhealthy and malnourished, and over-browsing has decimated the forest understory. Hunters harvest deer safely and thoughtfully and use the venison for food.

Conservancy trails are closed from November 24 through December 31.
