Donald D. Ferguson Demonstration Forest

We invite you to step into the Donald D. Ferguson Demonstration Forest. The 400 forested acres of this woodland are a melding of the past and present. In the late 1800s two railroads – the Duluth and Iron Range and the Duluth and Northern Minnesota – hauled their loads of ore and timber from this land. Now in the 21st century, these multiple-use forest lands are valued for wood fiber and lumber; habitat for wildlife; and for cultural, aesthetic, and recreational values they provide to the citizens of Minnesota and visitors to the area.
