Walk Wednesday with Wendy and Cam: Mangano-Mazzello Preserve, East Haddam

This 123-acre preserve was once a dairy and vegetable farm. Features at this 123-acre preserve include an active beaver pond and a bridge across a very attractive brook. Moderate hike with some inclines. About two miles.

Wendy Hill, Open Space Coordinator of Lyme and Lyme Land Trust Vice President will lead the walks with host Cameron Beard of the East Haddam Land Trust. The walks are moderate along dirt paths with some uneven footing and slight inclines, unless noted. About 2-3 miles. Walks match the group’s pace and distance is estimated. Bring water and dress appropriately; hikes are cancelled if weather is bad.
