HIKES INTO THE YALE FOREST – TIME CHANGE

Hikes to be offered into the Yale Forest soon. Mount Holly is home to 462 acres that are part of Yale’s Forestry program. The land was given to them in 1922 by the family of Joseph Bowen. He was a graduate of the Yale School of Forestry who was killed when shot down over France in World War one.

The hikes will be held from early October until early November. They are moderate walks along an early road. Learn about the history of the area and visit the plaque that was placed in memory of the young pilot who did not come home.

The hikes are finalized a day or two ahead of time when more is known about the weather. Please leave a message at 802-259-2460 or ddevereux@vermontel.net if interested. There will be several opportunities to join the hour and a half trek.

*** THIS IS A CORRECTION OF THE TIME FOR THIS THURSDAY. My first hike this season will be held this Thursday at 2:30. Plan to meet at Flanders Corner about one half mile south of the Crowley Cheese Factory on Healdville Road.

The Friends of Fletcher Memorial Library have published a calendar for 2027 with the winning photos from our "photos of Ludlow" contest. The calendar was created to celebrate our library's 125th year. They can be purchased at the library's front desk for $15 or 2 for $25. They make great holiday gifts!
