Fall Family Hike: Treasure the Trees
Saturday, October 19, 2 PM
Torsey Pond Nature Preserve
Join us for this all-ages special event co-hosted by the Readfield Community Library and Kennebec Land Trust. On Saturday October 19th at 2:00pm, we will gather at the KLT property “Torsey Pond Nature Preserve” in Readfield. The program will include a reading of the picture book The Hike by Allison Farrell, followed by a guided nature hike on the Torsey Pond Nature Preserve led by KLT land stewards. The hike is approximately 1 mile, and is mostly flat. We will learn about and explore TREES on our hiking adventure together, and will also have a nature journal for kids to create and take home.
All ages are welcome! Please join us! Registration is requested, but not required. Please contact the Readfield Library to register: librarian@readfieldmaine.org or 207-685-4089 or message the Library on Facebook.
We will plan to hold this event rain or shine. Please dress for the weather, and bring along your own water bottle and bug spray. We will provide some snacks, but feel free to bring your own as well.
Directions: Take Route 17 to Kents Hill. Go north on Route 41 about one mile to the Torsey Pond Nature Preserve parking lot on the right. There will be a KLT sign. [Note: Do NOT use your google maps or GPS to locate the Nature Preserve. Google maps will bring you to the wrong location on the pond.] FMI about the property: https://www.tklt.org/torsey
