Well, Saturday morning was soggy and drizzling.  That put a damper on our enthusiasm to get any serious cutting or digging done!

The few brave folks that showed up in the morning did take a walk out to the historic Quabaug Springs well. The well cover was decaying and not safe, so a group of volunteers replaced the cover with pressure treated timbers and decking. On Saturday we took a peak inside before the decking was fully screwed down into place.

Clearing of the stone wall and removal of invasive brown knapweed will have to wait for another day. We hope you will join us for the next Wendemuth work day!
