Eli's Woods
Epping, NH 03042
United States
Join us to tour Eli’s Woods, the 100+ acre Tree Farm in Epping, NH, that Phil Primack has been stewarding for nearly
50 years. This well-managed property has developed as a “multi-aged” forest, with commercial harvests followed by timber stand improvement to liberate white pine and oak saplings. Phil is always happy to show visitors nice stands of timber and regeneration, along with “Super Tree,” New Hampshire’s state champion black birch, which will be officially remeasured as part of Tree Farm Field Day. The property also features wildlife openings to encourage an active beaver presence and walking trails along the Pawtuckaway River. By gifting a Life Estate to the Southeast Land Trust of New Hampshire, Phil has ensured that exceptional management of Eli’s Woods will continue “long after I am compost.”
