Eagle Creek Greenway Preserve is a 325-acre property located in Hiram Township. Situated in the Mahoning River watershed, this rolling property features an array of habitats, including mixed age forests, meadows and reverting fields. Over 20 acres of the property were included in our 2021 reforestation efforts. Eagle Creek and its tributary Silver Creek flow through the property’s southern and eastern sections, accompanied by high-quality associated wetlands. Hiram College owns and manages 137 acres adjacent to Eagle Creek Greenway Preserve’s eastern boundaries.
