[SEMCO] Orleans Conservation Trust- Reminder! Up-Coming Walk & Talk

[Orleans Conservation Trust]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Up-coming Educational Walk
Putnam Farm Conservation Area

Date: This Saturday, April 5, 2014

Location: 50 Bridge Road, Orleans

Time: 9:00-10:00am

Note: Due to the rain the walking conditions could be very wet. Please wear waterproof
boots.

Details: The Putnam Farm Conservation Area, which is made up of 14 acres, was purchased
by the Town in December of 2010. This land has been farmed for hundreds of years
 and borders Jeremiah's Gutter. This waterway once served as Cape Cod's first canal,
allowing individuals to sail between Cape Cod Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, dating
 as far back as 1717. The farm was purchased in 1957 by the Putnams and gravel from
under the topsoil was used to build the Eastham Rotary.

Starting in 2011 the Town, OCT, AmeriCorps Cape Cod and community volunteers worked
to remove hundreds of invasive shrubs and restore the ecological integrity of the
site. Those projects were a success and today the parcel is being maintained as 
an early succession field habitat.

Directions: From Orleans center, head south on Rt. 28 towards Eastham (0.4 miles).
Merge onto Rt.6A south and follow to the rotary. Take the second exit onto Smith
 Lane and take a quick left onto Rock Harbor Road. Follow for .2 miles and take 
a right into the Court House. Follow parking area to the back right of the Court
 House and enter the conservation area via a dirt road.
