Honey Creek Preserve

In 1994, the Miami County Park District acquired 90 acres of land at Honey Creek Preserve from Thomas and Rosemarie Timmer. An additional 110 acres were obtained through various grant programs. A beautiful 1950’s barn and silo, acquired with one of the land purchases, still stands at the entrance of the park. In 2009, a portion of the Honey Creek went through a major stream bank restoration to help reduce erosion and the amount of nutrients that enter the stream. It also provides storm water management. The restoration was funded by an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 319 Grant and administered by the Honey Creek Watershed Association.
