Part 1 in our Geology Walk series

Some of the most active present-day movement of sediment on our property is along Blackman’s Pond Brook. Walk along the brook as it meanders past the pastures, visiting our active spring, and discovering a variety of sediment types and sizes. Learn how stones and sediments are used, including in human and wildlife homes- we will pass a popular place for viewing animal tracks along the way.

Recommended for families (limited to 6 participants).

This walk will take you from the hill next to the Learning Center to the stone wall beyond the meadow by the marsh- mostly a flat gentle walk.

$10 per New Pond Farm member, $15 per non-member
