That's just not true. Native Americans did manage the forsests to a great degree, but it wasn't until the 19th century that the landscape became mostly open farmland.

Sinton, the author of that article, has an amazing book called From Devil’s Den to Livkingwater. It’s about the Mill River in Northampton, but is really a history of the whole region. Incredible book and a must read for any Pioneer Valley resident.
