📰 News we're reading

• Accessible hiking expands with all-terrain wheelchairs in CT (darientimes.com) — Sherman residents with limited mobility now have more ways to enjoy local trails, thanks to SOAR Experiences’ free all-terrain wheelchair hikes at Deer Pond Farm on the Sherman–Pawling line. The 850-acre preserve offers wide, well-marked paths and an accessible nature center, while a statewide DEEP program adds similar chairs at several Connecticut parks. Together, they’re opening forests, meadows, and river views to more neighbors.
