Endicott Park

Over Spring break I made a trip to where I work over the summer to look at the phenology and compare them to my sight. Endicott just like most of Vermont was a farm for the majority of its history before it was turned into a park for everyone in the community to enjoy. Due to this a lot of the forest in and around the park are new-age forests. This does not mean that it lacks in biodiversity. The park used to be. home to a lot of elms but sadly there is only one left which I believe has dutch elms disease. The park also consists of many oaks, shagbark hickory, paper, and yellow birch, cherry trees, and now is home to a newly planted apple farm which I helped plant last summer. Endicott park is home to a greater amount of biodiversity than my sight which may be because it is a protected sight and people may be activly planting trees to sustain the beauty of the park. My phenology blog is a lot more untouched being in between a college campus and a golf course.
