Osborndale State Park is 350 acres located in Derby, CT, and was willed to the state by Francis Osborne-Kellogg in 1956. The park was comprised of land purchased and used for agricultural practices, but best known for the herd of Holstein cattle and its breeding lineage.  The history of this location and other educational offerings are shared at the Homestead Museum and Environmental Center, located at 500 Hawthorne Ave.  Enter the park off Hawthorne Ave to find the station. The Chronolog station is on the bridge, looking at the island in the front pond.  This is a man-made pond and is fed by a natural spring.  The seasonal changes are reflective of precipitation and the availability of water in the water table.  Help show how the levels and diversity of the area reflect changes connected to the water level.  We can also see the changes in plant life along the pond and on the island.
