The Franklin F. and Brenda L. Holly Nature Sanctuary was donated to MNA in December 2018.
The property served as a family retreat for the Holly family for decades for Frank, his sister Brenda and their parents before them. There is a shrub dominated wetland in the southwestern corner which is predominantly composed of buttonbush and alder. There is a hardwood swamp around the fringes of the wetland and the uplands are primarily composed of northern mesic and dry-mesic forest with a few small sandy ridges reminiscent of pine-barrens.
