Beautiful paved place to get in a short nature walk.
This park is being completely neglected.The overgrowth not only makes it nearly impossible to walk the path, it’s also very dangerous as you cannot see anyone else that could be on the trail. What a shame the township has decided it’s ok to completely neglect this park. To a lifelong resident and taxpayer- not acceptable.
Hampton J. Robichaud class of 1978 45th reunion pick nick. It was a small and quiet quant park. The love shared was the very best
Cute and simple pathways lots of pretty flowers. Very well kept.
Lots of poop and invasive plant species.
It would appear that at least some of the poop is from domesticated animals.
I’ve noticed some other reviews comment on the overgrowth but this park appears to have been set up to attract pollinators to the area which would dictate a focus on overgrowth of native species. I’d be happy to volunteer to help remove some of the invasive plants if there were an organized effort to do so.
