A Sweet Treat at Sugar Pond

A special event to foster appreciation for our local woods & park

Music at Sugar Pond

We had a great time, a great turnout, and super good vibes by the pond with illustrious talent—the music of Annie Sumi and Adam Hart— perfect weather, and joyful community.

See more pics of the event by Lewis Lin here and see below for the nature walk posted around the pond.

Thanks to our sponsors Dandelion Energy, MOM's Organic Market and John Maggiotto!

The popup, self-guided, interpretive nature walk around Sugar Pond has been taken down, but the slides are viewable at the link below. Special thanks to Hastings Paint and Hardware for contributing paint stick stakes, to Anthony Costantini at the Village for printing the placards, and to Julien Amsellem, whose bird photos are viewable here.
