About Tuthill's Woodland PreserveThe 195 acres at the Tuthill’s Woodland Preserve is part of the Piscataquog Land Conservancy (PLC) which was founded in 1970. The PLC is a private, non-profit whose mission is to conserve land, water and wildlife within the Merrimack valley of New Hampshire.

Evidence of that recent harvest can be seen along the trail where areas of large open space allow for new growth to take place.
