Abstract: To create an initial, partial plant inventory of the Sustainable Development Farm forest, 21 randomly generated sample sites were visited in the fall of 2015 and the Spring of 2016 and the plants found were collected and identified. Forty-seven species were encountered, as well as an interesting variation in site diversity, which is discussed. The resulting initial inventory, the sample sites, the digitized forest tract map, and the photos of the sites and of the specimens will be available for reference for holistic forest management planning, more complete surveys, and for future ecological studies of the property.
