This 36 acre parcel, which is now named The Jim and Evalyn Hornig Natureal Area at Lower Slade Brook, adds to the greenway along the Slade Brook corridor.  This conservation area, protecting the lower reaches of Slade Brook at its confluence with the Connecticut River, is one of Hanover’s pristine natural treasures.  The public trail provides easy access to lower Slade Brook, including a picturesque waterfall.

He has served as a mentor to many of us in the Hanover conservation community” said Betsy McGean, current President of the Hanover Conservation Council.
