The Seneca Meadows Wetland Preserve includes 576 acres of wetland, grassland and woodland habitat, along with seven miles of trails. The preserve was created through mitigation efforts by Seneca Meadows Inc. that included planting native species, removing invasive species, adding six ponds and forming three habitats.
The education center works with the Montezuma Audubon Center and Audubon New York to offer hands-on learning programs tied to restoration and the preserve's value as an Important Bird Area.
