Event:            Celebrating the International Year of the Forest.
Place:            Wentworth Picnic Park, Cumberland Co. Rte 4
Time:             10:30 am
Duration:       Two hours
Date:             September 11, 2011
Leader:         Heather Drope
Contact:        phone number  440-5032 for the weekend.
Difficulty:       Easy.
Meet:             Meet by the walking bridge in the park.

To see:          Years ago one of our members went for a wander into  
the old farming fields of the park and realized that they were laid  
out in a particular way - a strip of trees then field more trees and  
more field. This was good farming practise. The fields may have been  
let to go back into trees but the wood lots remain. The woods were  
made up of the biggest stand of Iron wood  ( Ostrya virginiana ) this  
gentleman had ever seen. We have all seen the monster Ironwood tree on  
previous field trips but never a good stand of them.
Come out for a good look at this old farm featuring a flood plain, a  
drumlin and lots of Iron wood trees with their unique seed capsules.  
Lets all celebrate the International Year of the Forest !
