Little Orange Creek Nature Preserve
November 2012
Thirteen SFAS members, led by Mike and Janet Stallings enjoyed visiting this developing nature park near Hawthorne. The land was purchased in 2010 by Putnam and Alachua Land Conservancy with a grant from Florida Forever/Florida Communities Trust. Several of the millwork remnants from Hawthorne’s original (circa 1850) mill remain on Little Orange Creek. The site is an important part of the Ocala to Osceola wildlife corridor and features a variety of wetlands and uplands.
