The Brower Property
The Burlington Land Trust is the proud owner of the 43-acre Martha Brower Nature Preserve. Established in 2001 by Martha's husband Mike, who, together with his late wife, loved and owned the land for 50 years. His gift to us is a gift to all the people of Burlington. It contains a large pond and a section of the Tunxis Trail, which leads to the beautiful and challenging Mile of Ledges and Tory Den. In 2011 the BLT was given an additional abutting 1.5 acres by Art Morenz.
