Newton Conservators is hosting a Cold Spring Park Tour with Alan Nogee, President of Friends of Cold Spring Park, as part of the Newton Conservators Fall Walk Series. Participants will learn some surprising park history and see the difference between healthy areas of the park with indigenous plant communities that support local wildlife — and degraded sections overrun with invasive species and see where the works is being done on ecological restoration. The tour will start on October 19, 9:30AM at the kiosk at the end of the Beacon Street parking lot at Cold Spring Park (1200 Beacon Street, Waban). Registration is optional.
