On Sunday, April 3 at 10AM, I will be offering an Earth Day hike at Hubbard Brook Preserve in the Maromas part of town through Middletown's Recreation Division. We will explore this 75-acre park protected by an easement from CL+P to CT Forest and Park Association. The Preserve offers protected habitat for plants and wildlife, with scenic vistas of the Connecticut River. The trip should last until approximately 11:30AM.
