Toumey Woods, Experimental forest at Michigan State University in East Lansing, United States.
The 24-acre Toumey Woods contains a Beech-maple forest with American beech, sugar maple, white ash, basswood, wild black cherry, and red oak trees.
The Bennett family preserved 13.5 acres of natural woodland when settling in 1852, later selling the property to Michigan State University in 1939.
Named after James Toumey, a Michigan State University graduate who became dean of Yale School of Forestry and founded the Ecological Society of America.
The experimental forest remains open at all times for visitors interested in exploring nature, with no specific parking facilities or designated entry points.
The forest features 13.5 acres of old-growth woodland, designated as a National Natural Landmark in 1976 for its ecological preservation value.
