This week there were lots of changes inside the nature center. Pipes arrived for the sprinkler system.
The assembly space had ceiling fans and sprinkler pipes installed.
After stopping at the visitor services desk, you will exit the welcome center onto a new deck that connects directly to the main trail. This photo is from the trail looking back toward the deck and the welcome center.
It’s mid-summer and a little red is showing on the red maples at Little Farm Pond.
Chicory, a naturalized plant native to Europe is in bloom along field edges and roadsides. The root is sometimes used as a coffee substitute.
The main trail is inviting. As days get cooler visitors are enjoying walks in the woods looking for mushrooms, chipmunks and young birds out of the nest.
Fields are full of wildflowers and native grasses.
