For the opening weekend of the 24th annual Housatonic Heritage Walks, the Sharon Land Trust showed that the forest holds many secrets for those who know what to look for. Over the course of a two and a half mile loop through the secluded Sharon Mountain Preserve on the sunny morning of Sept. 5, SLT Land Steward Sophie Lake-Ginouves pointed out telltale signs of bygone industries that have left their mark, helpful herbs and plenty of fungi.

The Swift House

Alec Linden

KENT – After months of studying the future of the historic, long-vacant Swift House, a town committee will present three options to the Board of Selectmen on Sept. 14: sell the property, borrow money to restore it at once, or retain town ownership and complete the work in phases.
