It’s February, have you kept up with your resolutions?  No worries.  Here is one you don’t want to miss.  Park Interpreter, Meg Doppée will take you on a slow hike around Farmstead Loop.  We will look at the remnants of the 1840’s farming community that once stood in the area, and learn a little about the history of this community.    The hike is about 1.5 miles on a varied terrain.  It should take us about 1.5 hours as we will stop along the way to discuss the park’s history.  Meet Meg at the main parking lot near the pollinator garden at 10:00.  Dress for the weather.  Binoculars will help us view the old farm houses from the trail.
