Fairview Farm Wildlife Preserve

About

Fairview Farm Wildlife Preserve is home to the Raritan Headwaters Association. A former dairy farm, the 170-acre property now serves as a living laboratory. Habitat restoration projects & scientific studies are underway across the site to support native flora and fauna, including a number of threatened & endangered species. Fairview Farm is open every day from dawn until dusk. A visit here is a unique experience. There are no picnic tables, trash cans or playgrounds. There are, however, five miles of trails through fields & woods, a small pond, butterfly garden, restored 1800’s era barn complex & RHA’s office building. Passive recreational pursuits – nature walks, bird watching, photography, painting en plen aire, nature-journaling, catch and release fishing – can all be enjoyed on the property.
