Essex Land Trust’s hike of the month will be held on Saturday, Aug. 1, starting at 9 a.m. at Osage Trails. This hike will be hosted by stewards Lisa and Jerry Baczewski.

To reach Osage Trails, take Maple Avenue, off North Main St. to Foxboro Rd. entrance.

Osage Trails was a gift from Elizabeth Barnes Callender, in 1998. It is a waterfront park with a sweeping lawn, a waterside meadow and a patch of forest where the Falls River forms Falls River Cove.

The easy, well-marked loop trail winds through woods and wetlands close to the water, as well as, along higher ground inland.

Refreshments will be provided.
