Special Event: Saturday, May 2, 2026
Spend your morning stocking up on locally grown plants, then stick around to meet the sanctuary's herd of goats!
Plant Sale
9:00 am-1:00 pm
Habitat's annual plant sale offers a variety of Massachusetts-grown herbs, vegetables, annuals, and perennials. This year’s offerings include:
- a selection of native plants to boost biodiversity in your community
- shade-tolerant plants, alternatives to monoculture grass, and species that support native pollinators
- a variety of garden herbs and veggies
All proceeds support Mass Audubon's Habitat Education Center & Wildlife Sanctuary and the Habitat Intergenerational Program, which brings people of all ages together for environmental stewardship and community projects.
Goat Gala
1:00-3:00 pm
Come meet some of Habitat's hardest working (and hungriest) property staff members!
Interact with our friendly herd of Nigerian Dwarf Goats and observe them as they start their seasonal browse on grasses in the meadow. Learn about the work they do throughout the season and what special adaptations make them perfect for the job. Enjoy games, activities, and raffle prizes. After meeting the goats, vote for your favorite!
The Goat Gala is free with sanctuary admission. No registration is required. Parking is limited, so carpooling is encouraged.
