The following are excerpts describing the conservation area vegetation from Steve Ivas's study of the wetland that was deeded to the Scituate Conservation Commission by William and Linda Kochman, as well as native plants that were incorporated in the wet meadow by landscape architect and artist Tim Barner.

The wetland is primarily a red maple swamp adjacent to Granny's Brook, an intermittent stream that becomes tidal before it flows into Scituate Harbor.
