The full story

The Ashley Community Forest Board agreed that Shawn Ward will perform mowing this summer using Annie Penfield’s mower; the group decided to mow the Strafford meadow and a path through the Sharon meadow to address brush resulting from recent logging. The board also noted low attendance at several recent events and announced a program by Dan Healey, "How trees work," scheduled for Aug. 3 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
