Very long heterogenous fen with marked spots of high diversity and other large weedy zones. Fen elevated on norther and southern margins and depressed near central lakes (2). Bordered on north by woodland as well as on southern edge, but southern edge has a railroad and nearby row-crop agriculture. Typhaspp. appear to be heavily impacting fen. Diverse area affected by encroaching Cornus foemina and some Rhamnus alnifolia. Prevalent species include Carex stricta, Pycnanthemum virginicum, Solidago gigantea, Thalictrum dasycarpum, Zizia aurea, and Maianthemum stellatum. Ground moist but not wet.
