There will be a parking lot and handicap-accessible restrooms, just a few steps from the picnic shelter. 


Not only are we thrilled to have your presence, we are also honored to announce that an extra special guest will be joining us. Harts of Lyme warmly welcomes guest speaker Jordan Fisher Smith. Those of us in the Lyme community know him well as the narrator and one of the feature story subjects of the acclaimed documentaries, Under Our Skin and Emergence. He is also the author of two books (Nature Noir and Engineering Eden), a former park ranger and an international Lyme activist and speaker. 

Our mission and vision of this event is to share a relaxing afternoon and evening where we can reflect, share, have conversations and visit with old friends and welcome new ones in a beautiful and tranquil setting. This time we get the added bonus of listening to and having a talk with Jordan Fisher Smith.

There is no cost to attend the event.
