“Explore East Hampton Tree Walk”
The East Hampton Parks and Recreation Dept. will sponsor a “Tree Walk” in the village of East Hampton on Sunday, June 2, at 10 am. (Please note time change) The walk is organized by the Chatham Historical Society as part of the “Explore East Hampton” monthly series program.
Ed Richardson of Glastonbury, a volunteer with the Connecticut Notable Tree Committee, will lead the walk. Richardson has located, identified, and measured hundreds of notable trees throughout the state. Ed has traveled throughout Connecticut and he has a knack for finding the largest and oldest trees. He enjoys sharing his knowledge of trees and has led walks at many public and private tree collections.
Come and learn about the majestic trees that have graced our town’s landscape for hundreds of years. The walk is open to adults and children. Wear comfortable shoes and no dogs please.
The walk will begin and end at The Chatham Historical Society's Museum complex located at 6 Bevin Boulevard. The museum will also be open for tours after the walk and also at its usual time from 2-4 pm. Parking is available by the museum or behind the Center School.
The walk will take approximately 1 and a half hours. Heavy rain will cancel the walk.
