Spring Hill Conservation Area
Gifted to the Franklin Land Trust by lifelong Plainfield resident Thelma Nye Pilgrim, this 86-acre conservation area protects a landscape rich in family history, wildlife, and classic New England scenery. Forests, open fields, wetlands, and a meandering stream create a peaceful setting alive with birdsong and seasonal color. An unnamed tributary flows through the property to Mill Brook, a designated cold-water fishery, with wetlands and active beaver habitat along its course.
