Tifft History Tour

Tifft has an interesting history and plays a major role in Buffalo’s past. Spend an afternoon learning how the layout of the preserve has been affected over the years and find some “secret” spots where you can still see remnants of its history.  Marvel at nature’s ability to reclaim the land and use old maps and photos to imagine the original layout of the preserve.
