In case you’re curious about why Wellesley Farms train station trees were cut down

We recently received a question about why a number of trees were cut down at the Wellesley Farms commuter rail station between the parking lot and Croton Street. Here’s what’s up:  The Wellesley DPW says that the trees were infested with the dreaded Hemlock Woolly Adelgid, and as a result were either dead or dying. Expect them to be replaced in the next month or so with White Pines.

Meanwhile, the reader who asked about the Wellesley Farms tree also shared this photo of the new Quebrada food truck at the other end of the commuter rail line at South Station.
