It is part of a working "century farm", having been in the same Wright family from a land grant dating to the late 1700s. One of the earliest stewards of this farm was Celia Brown Cole, daughter of the original settler in Shady Valley. Shady Valley was extensively logged at the turn of the century, with white pine yields from the forests exceeding 100,000 board feet per acre, reportedly the highest yields ever reported anywhere for this species. The Wright Forest Natural Area is the only known remnant of this original forest and covers 15 acres. Many of the white pines and hemlocks now growing in the forest exceed 140 years of age. One noted tree, felled by natural causes, was reported to have been over 200 years old.
