New Lodi Woods Nature Preserve opens Thursday in Medina County

A family retreat in Lodi is about to become Medina County Park District's 25th park. The Medina County Park District has announced that it will be opening the Lodi Woods Nature Preserve on Thursday, Nov. 12. A short dedication ceremony will be held at noon. The 67-acre park will feature a north-south hiking trail that rises some 50 feet from its start to finish. Parks Director Nathan Eppink said the property was initially purchased years ago by a family, whose name was not released, as an investment. Over the ensuing years, he said, the family used the property for hiking, camping and a place to ride ATVs. Eppink said they came to appreciate the property's natural beauty and offered to sell it to the park district for preservation. “Throughout the county, we’re able to do more thanks to unique and creative partnerships,” Eppink said. “Lodi Woods is no different. Our collaboration with the library is what makes public access here possible.” In partnership with the Medina County Library District, parking and restrooms for the preserve will be provided at the Lodi Library at 635 Wooster Street. Aside from the library, access for nearby residents to the trails will be available
