Come learn about the positive effect of beavers upon the environment. Ali Beres-Nork, an Environmental Science teacher at Amity High School and Bethany Land Trust board member, will serve as our guide as we hike through the very active beaver habitat in Mendell’s Folly. We’ll view beaver lodges, a beaver dam, and discuss the installation of the beaver flow system that helps maintain beaver pond water levels.
We will meet at the roadside parking area at the Van Epps Preserve at 390 Beacon Road (Route 42) in Bethany at 1:00 PM. Look for the green Land Trust banner. Off-road parking is also available.
All are welcome but space for the hike will be limited to 25 registered participants. No dogs will be allowed and inclement weather will cancel.
