More than 30 years ago, a group of volunteers began cutting out buckthorn and other invasive brush that threatened to destroy hundreds of acres of natural area near north suburban Glenview. Their efforts worked, leading to the establishment of Harms Woods Nature Preserve and additional conservation work by the Forest Preserves of Cook County. The FPCC announced that Illinois had recognized a 169-acre section of Harms Woods as an official state nature preserve, the highest level of protection for land in the state.  “This site is really a testament to the hard work of a dedicated group of volunteers,” said Chip O’Leary, FPCC’s deputy director of resource management.”
