Restoration Walks at Newlin Grist Mill
Join us for a slow-paced, 3 mile hike with some elevation. We will hike approximately one mile to the Old Christmas Tree Farm, noting local history along the way. Once we reach the forest, we will spend 10 minutes quietly enjoying the sounds of nature to clear our minds. We will then head back down, passing additional historical points of interest. Hiking boots or sturdy shoes are recommended, and please remember to bring water.
The hike will be led by Dee McGrath
