WLT conserves open space, revitalizes culturally significant properties and provides environmental programs for the enduring benefit of our community.

It’s hunting season in Rhode Island which means fluorescent orange isn’t just a style choice, it’s the law. 🦺✴️

Here’s what you need to know:
🔸Anyone in a state management area, privately conserved area, or undeveloped state park that allows hunting must wear at least 200 sq inches of solid daylight fluorescent orange that’s visible from all sides
🔸During shotgun deer season (starting in December), that requirement increases to 500 sq inches - for everyone not just hunters!
🔸This requirement runs from the second Saturday in September to the last day of February and again from the third Saturday in April to the last day of May.
🔸If you’re not sure if you have to wear orange, always choose to wear it for safety. Stay visible, stay safe.

Thanks to @rhodeisland.dem for the video inspiration- check out their website for official orange requirements, hunting safety tips, and seasonal details. www.dem.ri.gov/orange🦌🧡

Thinking back on a beautiful night at the return of Farm Dinner at Barlow Nature Preserve. 💐🥗

✨The evening was full of connection - through food, conversation, and the land around us.

Grateful to everyone who helped make it happen, and to Paul Bloomfield of @metalcamera.events for capturing the essence of Farm Dinner so perfectly. 💚🌳
