Bogs are known for supporting some of the most interesting plants found in the United States. Since bogs are acidic and have low nutrient levels, bog plants have special adaptations to support growth. Keep your eye out for these common bog plants:
Sphagnum Moss
Blueberry bushes
Pickerelweed
The boardwalk gives visitors an up-close-and-personal view of Lacawac's bog, the various bog plants and Lake Lacawac.
