Bauer Farm was established by the Bauer family 100 years ago. In 1990, the
64.5 acre property was donated to the town of Madison. It includes ponds,
meadows, woodlands, and rock outcroppings, as well as a nature center
offering educational programs, community gardens, and trails. This will be
our first CBA trip there, and we’re eager to see what we can find flying
there!

Directions: from I-95, exit 61, head north approximately .1 mile on Route
79. Take a left onto Hunter’s Trail. Proceed to the end (less than one mile)
and turn right onto Copse Road. The center, with parking, is immediately on
