treewalk_smallA self-guided walking tour of trees from Glastonbury Center to Hubbard Street including Hubbard Green

The purpose of this self-guided walk is to encourage our citizens to learn how to identify trees along historic Main Street, to enjoy their beauty and appreciate their role in the environment. In planning the walk, GPIP partnered with the Town of Glastonbury as well as Main St. homeowners. They have graciously allowed us to place markers on most of the trees so that you can find them more easily. The markers list the scientific and common names of the trees just as they appear in the guide.
