| 説明 | What was once an operating Bureau of Land Management Seed Orchard, the Provolt recreation site is now a unique place to discover Oregon’s heritage! Whether hiking, biking or horseback riding along the trails that criss-cross the landscape, or paddling along the Applegate River, the Douglas-Fir stands, whose seeds were once used for reforestation, tell the unique story of Oregon’s timber history. The BLM acquired the Provolt Seed Orchard in January 1981 and it functioned as a seed orchard for production, breeding and preservation of a select species of Oregon native trees until 2015. During its operation, the orchard provided a cooperative seed orchard program, public access to the Applegate River, and opportunities for local grade school education demonstrations of orchard management. As you venture through the area, you will discover the unique landscape that is now host to abundant wildlife and recreation opportunities. Take a trip down memory lane through Oregon’s timber history, and discover the unique ecosystem at Provolt. •The Provolt recreation site is a day use only are that is open from sunrise to sunset.
