Hammer Wald is in various stages of forest succession. There’s a field that was cultivated and now has scattered ash, red maple, hawthorn, basswood, elm, black walnut and hop hornbeam — trees of early succession. There’s a mature forest of beech, hickory, sugar maple, tulip, cherry and oak trees. The variety of trees and stages of tree growth are matched by the variety of birds and wildflowers.
