Chestnut Roast at Oakdale Beach

New York Folklore is excited to continue its partnership with the Hudson Library to present a Chestnut Roast at Oakdale Beach.

Join Arthur’s Point Farm Manager, Emerson Martin, to learn all about the ecology and use of chestnut trees while enjoying a toasty treat of chestnuts roasted on an open fire at Oakdale Beach. Emerson’s presentation will focus on the importance of chestnuts as a food source for both humans and wildlife, the successful growth of chestnut trees as a crop, and specific growing patterns for this amazing species. Questions and discussion will follow the presentation.

Registration is required and space is limited. To register, email programs@hudsonarealibrary.org or call 518-828-1792 x101.
