A Zoom Presentation by co-director and naturalist Laurie Sanders

Why is Round Hill roundish? When was part of Florence an island? Where and why were many of the bricks that built Smith College made in Northampton? Why is downtown Northampton “down” in elevation?

In this hour-long Zoom presentation, Laurie Sanders will answer these questions and more as she takes us on a tour of the City’s landscape history, providing a closer look at the geology and patterns that underlie and define Northampton’s neighborhoods, natural areas, and open spaces.
