THE WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREA: CREATING A HABITAT AT BERRY COLLEGE
Berry College is home to numerous acres of flourishing forest lands and adorable, friendly deer. Conserving the cherished land through the Wildlife Management Area has been a long, strenuous journey. From a meeting between Martha Berry and Theodore Roosevelt to researching the benefits of deer relocation, Berry’s conservation story is drenched in a history of passion for conserving these beautiful lands, and a home for wildlife, the Berry community, and the public to enjoy.
MARTHA BERRY AND HER GARDENS: AMONG THE HILLS
Martha Berry viewed gardens as inspirational and a way to beautify the environment. Agriculture and workmanship were central foundations to the Berry Schools, and the gardens acted as a showcase for the Berry community. With prominent figures such as landscape architect Robert Cridland and horticulturalist Luther Burbank contributing to the design and variety of plants, the beautiful gardens surrounding Oak Hill and the House o' Dreams have delighted students, staff, and visitors to this day.
