Jackson Bog State Nature Preserve, Protected wetland area in Jackson Township, Ohio.
The Jackson Bog State Nature Preserve spans 57 acres of land containing springs that emerge from beneath an elongated kame along the northern edge.
The Jackson Township Local Board of Education and Ohio Division of Natural Areas and Preserves established this conservation site in 1980 to protect rare plant species.
The preserve functions as an educational center where students and researchers study the ecological systems of alkaline bogs and their resident plant species.
Visitors can access the preserve through a 1.9-mile loop trail featuring an elevated boardwalk with information panels about the local flora and geological formations.
The preserve harbors more than 20 state-listed rare plants, including northern pitcher plants that capture insects in their specialized leaf structures.
