The Hillside Festival in pictures

​We don’t have totals, but the Hillside Festival seems to have been a great success. The hikes and talks were well attended and importantly, many people who had never been to the Hillside Natural Area now know what we already did, that it is a treasure to be protected and cherished. Here are some pictures from the day. If you have pictures you would like to share, why not drop us a line?
