What kind of tree work comes up in Sharon Township?

Sharon Township covers about 26 square miles with fewer than 6,000 people, roughly 230 per square mile, so it is far more spread out than the nearby cities. An 1881 county history notes the township moved from wheat and sheep to dairy farming.

Larger lots can be quoted for removing dead trees near houses and drives, clearing fence rows, or opening up overgrown acreage in one visit.

Which Sharon Township woods does the county protect?

Two county parks hold the township's best-known woods. Green Leaf Park, at Medina Line Road and SR 162, was the first land developed as a Medina County park and was once a gravel pit; it now has a wooded trail and a 1.5-acre forested wetland on 97 acres.

Sharon Nature Preserve on State Road covers 134 acres of forest and meadow. The Park District bought it in 2014 with a Clean Ohio grant of more than $500,000 and opened it in October 2022.
