Poplar Mountain Conservation Area

Poplar Mountain Conservation area is a 167 acre parcel of conservation land located on Old State Road. The Town of Erving purchased it from the Ginuisz Family in 2006 with money from the "free cash" fund and a Self-Help grant. The land was previously used as a dairy farm but has since been returned to a mixed decidious and confierous forest. The land is part of an important wildlife corridor and contains 2 springs. In 2022 a gravel parking area was created to accomodate 9 cars.
