Welcome!

The 3rd and 4th grade students of Journey House spent the 2007-2008 school year learning about the Allen Brook Nature Trail located behind our school. We hiked the trail at least once every month. We hope you enjoy viewing our photos and reading about the trail!

White Pine and Hemlock Forest


The white pine and hemlock forest is the darkest part of the trail. Not many plants grow there because there is not much sunlight. The entire trail except the white pine and hemlock forest is sunny. In the winter not all of the pine needles fall off the trees. That’s why in the spring you can see a lot of pine needles on the ground.
