StoryWalk® at North Farms Park

Enjoy a walk in the woods this May by visiting our newest StoryWalk® at the North Farms Park. Our StoryWalk® connects families and young readers to nature, exploration and reading. Pages from Catching Thoughts by Bonnie Clark have been transformed into signs and displayed along the family-friendly hiking trail at North Farms Park.

Follow the path of pages while learning about how we can acknowledge difficult thoughts but also work to get past them by changing our mindset or focus. See how positive mental health strategies can make all the difference. This StoryWalk® has been made possible by the North Branford Wellness Council and is in recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month.

The North Farms Park is located at 149 Branford Road in North Branford.
Consider spending the day by packing a lunch, playing on he playground and then partaking in the StoryWalk® trail.
To begin, start at the North Farms trails map and turn left. You will see the first storyboard along the White Trail.

This StoryWalk® is a collaboration between North Branford Parks and Recreation and North Branford Public Libraries and would not be possible without Public Works. We hope this interactive, family-friendly activity encourages a lifelong love of reading and the great outdoors.

The StoryWalk® Project was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library. StoryWalk® is a registered service mark owned by Ms. Ferguson.
