Sherman, Conn. The Connecticut Audubon Society at Deer Pond Farm will host its first “Take a Hike Tuesday” on November 21, at 10 a.m. Join us for fresh air, exercise, good company and naturalist-led lessons about local wildlife and habitats while exploring the scenic trails of Connecticut Audubon’s newest sanctuary.

Deer Pond Farm covers 835 acres of rugged hardwood forest, meadows and wetlands straddling the border of Connecticut and New York. On “Take a Hike Tuesday” we’ll trek 3.5-miles, in two to three hours, over moderately hilly terrain. Along the way, we’ll reap the benefits of connecting with nature and pave the way for conservation efforts in the sanctuary.

Deer Pond Farm’s 20 miles of trails are currently only open to the public through scheduled, guided walks accompanied by Connecticut Audubon staff. “Take a Hike Tuesday” is free for CAS members, $5 for nonmembers; reservations are necessary. To register, please visit: www.ctaudubon.org/deer-pond-farm; or call: 860-799-4074, x105.

Deer Pond Farm is located at 57 Wakeman Hill Road, Sherman, Conn. Learn more about this, and other upcoming Connecticut Audubon Society programs and events throughout the state, atwww.ctaudubon.org.
