New Year’s Day! Thursday, January 1, 2026 at 1:00 pm, Wethersfield. About 1½ hours. Meet Jim Woodworth at 160 Middletown Ave, south side of Maple Street, on GMCT’s Wood Parcel. Enjoy the Heritage Walk panels, new Eagle Scout installed accessible picnic table, native shrub plantings, and lush “Rays Crazy Fall Mix cover crop on the corn field! Cross the shiny bridge and follow the trail along the marsh and around the loop past the 18th century house site. Hike will continue across the culvert by the Pond, and out along the edge of the farm fields that once hosted the original “Pyquag” Native American summer camp and burial site. We’ll continue along Anderson Farm fields and the marsh, across the Frechette Field and Dowd Parcels and turf fields to the new 7Acres Flower Farm.
