November 2026 edition

Golden hour light over the oaks and open fields of Morgan Oaks Eternal Preserve

A season of giving thanks

November is a month for gratitude—for the veterans who served, the caregivers who show up every day, and the families who make Morgan Oaks what it is. Here's what's happening on the preserve this month.

Introducing Oak Haven Bridge

National Family Caregivers Month

Nominate a caregiver who deserves to be celebrated

November is National Caregiver Month, and we want to honor the people who care for others with patience and love—a spouse, an adult child, a nurse, a hospice volunteer, a neighbor. Tell us about someone who has made a difference, and we'll celebrate them with our Morgan Oaks community.

Send your nomination by Sunday, November 15. Just reply to our newsletter email or give us a call with your caregiver's name and a few words about why they matter.

It's tree planting season!

Cool, rainy months are the best time to give young trees a strong start. From the end of November through early March, you'll see new trees being planted across the preserve—each one a living memorial that will shade and shelter the land for generations.
