Eberwhite Woods is a 29 acre forest in Ann Arbor, Michigan, located between Liberty, Dartmoor, Soule, and Arbordale streets, and adjacent to Eberwhite Elementary School (see map). The woods is owned by the Ann Arbor Public Schools and is open to the public. The woods are a unique environment, representing a remnant of native Oak-Hickory forest which has never been clear-cut. The woods contain a wide variety of wildflowers, including some state-threatened species such as goldenseal.

The woods were an undeveloped part of the farm of Eber White, an early Ann Arbor settler. The woods were sold to the University of Michigan in the early twentieth century and used for many years by the School of Natural Sciences to teach forestry. Eventually, the university decided to use other locations for teaching and gave the woods to the Ann Arbor School District in 1947. Eberwhite Elementary school was built on part of the woods in 1950, leaving the woods we see today. In 1965, a new species of mushroom (strictly speaking a bolete, a mushroom-like fungus without gills), was discovered in the woods and given the name boletus eberwhitei. The woods also has three small ponds (one vernal) which support a wide variety of aquatic life such as frogs and turtles.

The woods has maintained its native vegetation quite well, though it is under pressure from invasive species like garlic mustard, and buckthorn. In 1999, many large Oak trees had to be cut down after dying due to several years of drought and gypsy moth contamination.

The Eberwhite Woods Committee, an informal advisory group composed local residents, helps maintain the woods, and organizes stewardship activities throughout the year. The committee is sponsored by the Eberwhite Elementary School PTO and typically meets at Eberwhite School on the third Thursday of each month throughout the school year. The committee is open to anyone with an interest in the woods. Currently the committee is co-chaired by John Selden and Edward Diehl. The committee has recently prepared a long term plan for the woods available in HTML or PDF.
