Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Peoples State Forest: Typical of the Second Growth Forests of Connecticut The Peoples Forest is located in the town of Barkhamsted on the ridge east of the west branch of the Farmington River between Riverton and Pleasant Valley. It owes its name to the fact that it has been entirely given to the State through private subscriptions made to the Connecticut Forestry Association and gifts of land direct to the State. This forest is surrounded by country roads and may be easily reached from Riverton or Pleasant Valley. Local History "The Barkhamsted lighthouse" far from navigable water is said to derive its name from the fact that the stage driver of early days, when settlements were far apart, would cheer his passengers by pointing to the light from these cabins and facetiously calling it the lighthouse. The remains of the old road may still be seen just above the present road, Closely associated with this settlement is the well known story of Molly Barber. She was brought up in Wethersfield, but after being thwarted in love by her father, made the boast that she would marry the first man who proposed whether he were white, red or black.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “With the twinned calamities of climate change and mass extinction weighing heavier and heavier on my nature-besotted soul, here were concrete, affordable actions that I could take, that anyone could take, to help our wild neighbors thrive in the built human environment. And it all starts with nothing more than a seed. Bringing Nature Home is a miracle: a book that summons butterflies." —Margaret Renkl, The Washington Post As development and habitat destruction accelerate, there are increasing pressures on wildlife populations. In his groundbreaking book Bringing Nature Home, Douglas W. Tallamy reveals the unbreakable link between native plant species and native wildlife—native insects cannot, or will not, eat alien plants. When native plants disappear, the insects disappear, impoverishing the food source for birds and other animals. Luckily, there is an important and simple step we can all take to help reverse this alarming trend: everyone with access to a patch of earth can make a significant contribution toward sustaining biodiversity by simply choosing native plants. By acting on Douglas Tallamy's practical and achievable recommendations, we can all make a difference.
