The
Ledyard Town Committee will have a work day on the Avery Preserve on
Saturday, November 16th, beginning at 9:00 a.m.

| Avery Preserve |
We
will be doing light trail clearing work. This involves cutting
low brush intruding on the sides of the trail and cutting some limbs
hanging down into the trails. We want to restore the standard
width and height of the hiking trails (4’ wide x 8’ tall).
If you can come please bring your choice of loppers, pruners, or
other cutting tools for stems up to ½ inch. Also, bring gloves
and appropriate clothing for the weather. The long range
prediction is for sunny weather with temps in the 40’s. Expected
duration is 2 hours. We will also do some minor repairs on the
bridge over the stream near the sheep wash.
The
Avery Preserve parking area is located at 32 Avery Hill Road in
Ledyard. This is about ¾ of a mile north of Route 214
(Stoddard’s Wharf Road). Additional parking is available at
the ball field just west of the cemetery at the corner of Route 214
and Avery Hill Road. There is a path from the ball field back
to Avery Hill Road and it is a short walk up the road to the
meeting area which will be at the West Tract entrance sign across
from the parking area.
For
additional information call Mike Goodwin at (860)
464-2685.
