Work out on a hidden environmental conservation property on the shoreline of a Worcester Reservoir as we make improvements and upgrades to the Patch Reservoir Environmental Field Station. This facility serves Worcester State University Department of Earth Sciences, the Worcester Chapter of the Appalachian Mountain Club, the Friends of Patch Reservoir, and the Greater Worcester Land Trust.
