It is the largest undisturbed wooded area in Black Hawk County, Iowa and is home to three distinct habitats including wetland, forest, and prairie.
==History==
Hartman Reserve was originally named Camp Hartman Reserve and was only in size. Hartman Reserve was named after John C. Hartman who was a local writer for the Waterloo Daily Courier. He was also nature enthusiast, which prompted him to create the reserve.〔 The $4,000 for the reserve was raised by the Cedar Falls YMCA.
The reserve was purchased in 1938 with the intent of being a residential camping site and as site for the local members of the YMCA to use. Camp Hartman Reserve lasted until 1976 when the Black Hawk County Conservation Board purchased the other . Hartman was almost bought and turned into a highway. The cities of Cedar Falls and Waterloo helped and encouraged the Black Hawk County Conservation Board to purchase the land.〔(History )〕 That was the official start of Hartman Reserve Nature Center. The two lakes that make up were added in 1990.〔Coy, M, Frana, M, & Grier, J. (2010). History and current status. Unpublished manuscript, Department of Natural Science, University of Northern Iowa, Cedar Falls, Iowa.〕
The reserve is currently being supported by the Friends of Hartman Reserve. The Friends include individuals, families, and organizations that believe preserving the environment for the next generation is vital. They donate roughly $20,000 every year to keep the center open. In 2005, Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack signed the Articles of Dedication and created the Hartman Bluff State Preserve.〔
