Replacing a boardwalk at Benjamin Wildflower Preserve in Weston

When I am not in the office, I am out in the field. That's the fun part of my job. Yesterday, I replaced a boardwalk at the Benjamin Wildflower preserve on Stagecoach Road in Weston (off Kellogg Hill Road). You can find this preserve on our website in the Maps Tab.

It is a pretty little preserve that is maintained by the Weston Garden Club. Your membership support helps us to maintain our 42 trailed nature preserves. In 2010, the Land Trust spent $83,000 on maintenance.
