A Nature Year at Broad Meadow Brook

Description

Immerse yourself in a full year of natural phenomena at Broad Meadow Brook in this comprehensive natural history series for curious adults. Each month, a skilled Mass Audubon naturalist leads the group through a different wildlife topic-from hawks and mushrooms in fall and owls and tracking through winter to woodcocks and vernal pools in spring, and butterflies and nighthawks in summer.

Sessions start with an indoor introduction and spend at least 90 minutes outside in the field, experiencing lessons up close. You'll gain deep natural history knowledge, build lasting community with fellow learners, and develop a true connection to this sanctuary across every season.
