Joan Erbacher McMahan donated the first 44 acres of this preserve to the Roxbury Land Trust in 1991 and continued to add to the preserve through the years to bring it to its present size of 96 acres. McMahan also left a bequest to the Roxbury Land Trust to enable future land preservation efforts. A portion of the Horrigan Family Preserve trail crosses this property. For more information about this trail, please see the Horrigan Family Preserve.

A one-mile trail offers hikers views of large rock outcroppings and old-growth forests and is part of a series of trails that can be accessed via River Road that connect RLT’s River Road Preserve to its west Shepaug preserves (Orzech, Golden Harvest and Erbacher) across a pedestrian bridge over the Shepaug River. Richard Horrigan, Robert Horrigan and William Horrigan donated land in 2006 in memory of William Horrigan Jr. and Richard Tyler Horrigan.
