Farmington was truly a “farming town,” with the stone walls to prove it. Theodate Pope added to the town’s inventory of impressive stone walls, and now many are covered with an organism called lichen. Neither plant nor fungus, lichens’ psychedelic color can be seen bursting from wall surfaces, trees and nearly everywhere in the late winter atmosphere. Learn about the history of Farmington and its farms, as well as the miraculous lichen. This is a nature walk lichen no other… Admittance is $5 for members, $8 for members-to-be.
