Tiffany Creek Preserve
Oyster Bay, Sandy Hill Road south of Meadowlark Lane
A 197-acre preserve cobbled together from parts of three
formers estates, Tiffany Creek provides a mix of ecological
communities within the oak forest. Descending through
glacially formed ravines, the preserves oak hilltop and
upland meadow provide excellent examples of the mid-slope
community. Tuliptree, red oak and red maple dominate
the low slope. A wet meadow with a diverse plant community
can be found at the northeast border of the preserve.
