Posted on April 27, 2024January 31, 2025

Meet at: The Love Garden on Main St. between SignWiz & Evets Glassworks

The walk highlights many of the TREES OF INTEREST ON MAIN STREET IN GLASTONBURY’S HISTORIC DISTRICT that are illustrated in the handbook published by GPIP. Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring your personal refreshment as this walk takes about 1 to 2 hours depending on how much conversation (Q&A) there is.
