About Churchill Woods
Babcock Grove surrounds visitors in a savanna of bur oak, white oak and black maple trees. Churchill Prairie Nature Preserve contains one of the county’s few remaining native prairies and is home to several state endangered and threatened species. In 1993 the Illinois Nature Preserves Commission gave the prairie an extra level of protection.
