04/14/14 12-1pm Blustery and mostly cloudy with mild temps.
I discovered the Joshua Trust website (joshuatrust.org)
which lists the properties that have hiking trails in the Ashford, Connecticut area and I have a lot of exploring to do this spring!
Parked at Sean Patrick's Plants on East Howey Road at the top of a blustery hillside farm. The trail started off on a discontinued portion of East Howey road which is an old wagon road lined with stone walls and descends to Knowlton Brook where stone bridge abutments still remain and the road continues on the other side of the brook as it winds it way up into the woods. We followed the yellow trail which brought us along the brook amidst the skunk cabbage and frogs and back to the lot.
A short hike and an amazing area to see for its old farms and fields.
