“Wallingford Walks” is a series of guided tours of various aspects of Wallingford. For example, one month, they toured solar-powered homes around the neighborhood and another they toured backyard chicken coops and bee hives (hosted by nous). Walks generally start from Tully’s on a Saturday and rove around Wallingford for a couple of hours.
Mike “Build a Wallingford Community Center or die trying” Ruby has organized the walks in years past, and has asked us to put out a call for suggestions for this years walks. Got ideas?

Very cool idea for a walking group! I might need to write that up, too -like your sidebar BTW, Jordan!
A good walk for a dry day would be to the parts of the ‘hood with the most trash-ridden sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and planting strips. You all know where they are. Walkers would bring (long-handled) grabbers and trash bags, and move along at a brisk trash-grabbing yet conversational pace. Could even feature prizes for the most bags filled, biggest bag filled, most disgusting garbage picked up, etc. for those competitive walkers. No grabber dueling or squabbles over who saw what first, however!
I am a sucker for a fruit tree walk during harvest time!
