Founded in 2001, the rare Charitable Research Reserve (formerly Cruickston Charitable Research reserve) is a 900+acre land reserve situated at the confluence of the Grand and Speed Rivers. The reserve is not only a beautiful and culturally significant landscape, but includes trees more than 240 years old and provides a diversity of habitats that supports rich biodiversity. This pristine landscape is home to an incredible array of flora and fauna, some of which are ranked significant regionally, provincially, nationally, even globally. These lands are the former prized agricultural lands of the Cruickston Park Estate, built by a descendant of John Jacob Astor.
