Land Trust hikers view recently installed beaver deceiver
|
Oct. 26 was a sunny warm day—perfect for the Granby Land Trust’s Dave Emery to take a group of 20 hikers on a walk that highlighted the beaver deceiver installed at the Dismal Brook Wildlife Sanctuary. A very industrious group of beavers had constructed a dam under the footbridge, effectively raising the water level on one side of the Dismal Brook and lowering it on the other side of the bridge.

Fall apples make great bread

Fall in New England always means it’s apple season! This recipe came to me from the Bellott family in Granby. Very easy, very delicious and the recipe makes two loaves—one to keep and one to share with family, friends or co-workers.
