    Join us for a Valentine’s Day hike on Friday, February 14. We couldn’t think of a better spot to celebrate love than at Heartbreak Pond—oops, I mean Breakheart Pond.

    Meander through tranquil woods, along Breakheart Brook, past the sparkling waters of the pond, and enjoy the natural beauty of this serene spot. Hearts will glow as we trek about 3 miles and soak in the quiet together.

    Bring sturdy shoes, thick socks, warm layers, and a little love for nature.

    Kettle Pond Visitor Center, 50 Bend Rd, Charlestown, RI 02813, USA

    Sharing on behalf of Charlestown Land Trust.

    Join us CLT's second talk in their 2025 Winter Speaker Series - CLT is thrilled to welcome Wenley Ferguson, Director of Habitat Restoration at Save The Bay.

    Wenley’s presentation will focus on salt marsh restoration in Charlestown and throughout the salt ponds and Narragansett Bay. Rhode Island’s salt marshes face significant challenges, from historical alterations like drainage ditches to the accelerating impacts of sea level rise. These critical ecosystems filter stormwater pollution, buffer against storms, and provide habitat for at-risk species like the salt marsh sparrow. Learn about local restoration efforts, including elevation enhancement projects using dredged sediment and tidal hydrology restoration projects using “runnels” that are helping these ecosystems adapt to climate change.

    No pre-registration required.
