Putnam County Land Trust

The Putnam County Land Trust is proud to present a program for our community called “Owls and Tadpoles”. It is part of a fall series of programs planned by the trust called “A Bridge to Nature.” This program features a gathering of our generations at the Land Trust headquarters at 63 Cobb Road in Brewster that will include Animal Story telling, a Tree Planting ceremony and a Time of Sharing. An optional guided Sunset hike at 5:30 pm will allow those present to venture out into nature to observe and participate in nature’s ways of shifting to the evening and nighttime hours. Bird calls will be identified and local ecology will be interpreted. The program will be led by Sam Weinstock, a naturalist and poet who has run science programs to public, private and parochial schools throughout Connecticut and New York. He also guides the nature program at Camp Combe YMCA in the Town of Putnam. He was part of the Environmental Conservation Education Program at New York University and worked with Aborignes in Australia for five years, including teaching at the University of Technology at Sydney.

All in our communities are invited to participate and join in these enriching activities: they clearly hold that there is a positive connection between the environment and our community and how we are well served by that bond.

Events are free to Putnam County Land Trust members. Non-members pay $5. Children under 6 attend free. Take out a membership at the program and attend all programs during the year for free or at a reduced rate. Please call 845 278 8202 for more information or check the PCLT website at www.pclt.net.
