Aerial Views of the Celery Farm
Last week, I took some aerial photographs of the Celery Farm to document current conditions and marsh life. The day was overcast, but still got some decent shots.
The shot above is the south end Lake Appert, including the Warden's Watch. You can also see how close to downtown Allendale is to the Celery Farm.That's the train track in the upper right.
This is the north end of Lake Appert, including the Boy Scout Platform. That dark line on the left-hand side of the photo is Parnell's Path.
This is a view of the Celery Farm looking north. You can still see a few of the furrows left from the old working-farm days.

Nice photos! It’s amazing that, from ground level within the Celery Farm, so few signs of civilization (except those condos)can be seen, at least in summer, considering how close everything is.
