A team of Mendon Foundation volunteers have been very busy over the last two weeks completing trail maintenance and installing three (3) water mitigation culverts on our Pittsford-Mendon Center Road property. One of these culverts replaced the easement bridge that was washed out in the severe June storm. The trails are in great condition, so we hope you will take advantage to enjoy a beautiful hike on them!
