In Rhode Island the primary hunting seasons typically run from the second Saturday in September to the last day of February and from the third Saturday in April to the last day in May, however this can vary from year to year and depends on what game is being hunted. During hunting season you should wear at least 200 square inches (a hat OR a vest) of blaze orange. During shotgun deer season, which is typically in December, you should wear at least 500 square inches of blaze orange (a hat AND a vest). For more information see the RI DEM website.

Nearly at the western border of Rhode Island, along Kennedy Road in Foster, walkers will find an enjoyable 1 mile walk at the Tikkenen/Martin Property. The newly opened Berry View Trail offers visitors a short and easy walk around grassy fields that will surely be teeming with birds and insects in the warm spring and summer days. From the parking lot, walkers may begin the loop trail at the east or north gate.

From the Foster Land Trust website:
To enter the Berry View Trail from the north gate, look north across the field to the white blazes on trees at the wall. Please stay to the left along the edge of the field to protect the grasses. To enter from the east gate, the trail starts on an old cart road that leads to the rear of the property. The cart road ends and becomes a single path trail at the back of the property. It then heads north for a few hundred yards and then turns west heading back to the field and the parking area. The white-blazed trail ends in the north field. Please cross the field by traveling along the right edge of the field to protect the grasses.
