Bear-Paw One Step at a Time Beye Marston Farm Easement, Deerfield June 22 • 10 am – 12 pm Walk on the newly conserved Marston Farm easement and Pendleton Forest in Deerfield. We’ll have the Great Brook Trail as a goal for the walk while our hike takes a different trail through the Marston-Pendleton woods to get to it. This 128-acre woods has been conserved since the early 90s, but has remained in private ownership. The tract is soon to become a new Deerfield Town Forest. Directions: Turn onto Perry Road from Nottingham Road and see our Bear-Paw sandwich sign just a few hundred yards down Perry Road. There is room for parking on the shoulder. The distance to the Great Brook Trail through the woods is about half a mile and we meet Great Brook near the wooden bridge over it—an excellent place for a photo op. At that point people can decide if they’d like to trek farther along the Great Brook Trail in either direction or make a shorter excursion of it and turn back the way we came. Bear-Paw celebrates the 9,000 acres of our region’s forests, wetlands and farmlands that our work has protected. In addition to conserving water, wildlife habitat, forests, and farms, there is another benefit for us all – more than 6,000 of those acres are open to the public!
