    Hawks Hammock Access

    Description

    Description

    Hawks Hammock Preserve consists of 431 acres of primarily pine flatwoods and scattered wetlands. A pavilion has been constructed on the preserve in addition to a series of equestrian and hiking trails. The newly acquired access consists of 11 acres directly adjacent to SW Green Farms Lane then leads into the northwest corner of Hawks Hammock Preserve. The new parcel primarily falls under an existing Preserve Area Management Plan (PAMP) with a boundary trail system identified. Past efforts by the county to provide public access via an easement through Markel Street to the southeast had not been successful, due to landowner objections. The Ecosystem and Restoration division has identified the need to a provide a new equestrian/pedestrian access to Hawks Hammock Preserve off SW Green Farms Lane. The project will include trailer friendly turnaround, improved trail system to access Hawks Hammock, kiosk, small pavilion/ pole barn, exotic vegetation treatment, and boundary fencing.
