Walking in the lovely light rain today? Look for red efts 👀!

On rainy days in wooded areas, look for Red Efts (juvenile Eastern Newts) on roots and rocks.

Red Efts are the terrestrial, bright orange stage in the three-part Eastern Newt life cycle. Their life starts as a fully aquatic creature with visible gills, then they enter a terrestrial "Red Eft" stage, and finally, they return to the water as a yellow and green adult.

Of special note to Groton Neighbors members:

The Groton Center is now providing Loaves & Fishes Pantry in Devens, MA Pantry delivery for residents!

Loaves and Fishes Food Pantry is located in Devens and offers a wide variety of grocery items for anyone facing food insecurity for any reason. A major barrier to people getting their Loaves and Fishes groceries is transportation, and while we do offer van service to and from the Pantry we now have another way for people to receive their Pantry items delivered right to their front door with our volunteer Dave!

We are thrilled to offer this service to Groton residents!

If you are interested in receiving Pantry deliveries, please get in touch with Will at The Groton Center to determine eligibility and next steps.
