As eastern forests were depleted before the Civil War, investors began buying stands of Michigan’s abundant white pine, the wood most in demand for construction. By 1869, Michigan produced more lumber than any other state, a distinction it maintained for the next 30 years. Hartwick Pines invites you to come and take part in understanding Michigan's lumbering industry. The beautiful, natural scenery allows for relaxing nature walks, examination of interesting historical exhibits and an overall step back in time.
