uth. Creating these extensive areas of open space makes a real difference for wildlife. It also protects both private and public water supplies, the Buzzards Bay watershed, and the unique character of the Hixville area. The Reserves include a millpond, beautiful pitch pines and hemlocks, white pines and mature beech stands. Visitors should also watch for lady slippers in the late spring, blueberries and huckleberries in late summer and many different kinds of birds and plants.

We are making progress clearing trails after the storm. Here is where we suggest hiking. Please note that even cleared trails are still difficult with deep snow and areas of slush.
