Woods Signs of Early Princeton Along the Ridge: Quarries, Smallholder Farms, Timber Harvest
SATURDAY, MARCH 9 | 10:00 PM - 12:00 PM
The mix of nature and culture at Herrontown Woods provides a window into the past. Hidden in what today is a forest are clues to a time, a century ago, when Princeton's ridge was a patchwork of small farms, woodlots and quarries. Participants will learn to recognize these clues, and the history behind them.
