The Aspetuck Land Trust award for Native Landscape of the Year went to Weston resident Michelle Fracasso, hailing her planting of “hundreds of pollinator friendly plants and shrubs attracting bees, butterflies, and birds,” all free of pesticides.
Ms. Fracasso and her husband are longtime members of Aspetuck Land Trust. The organization noted that the couple’s Wells Hill Farm is the last working family farm with livestock in Weston and that Ms. Fracasso has “long been a committed supporter of local farms in Fairfield County,” active in farmland initiatives, and a volunteer and advisor for ALT.
