About Late Summer Sunset Stroll at Powisset Farm

Relax, unwind and join us for a Late Summer Sunset Stroll!

Witness the beauty of the farm at dusk, with Killdeer swooping through the skies for insects, Great Blue Herons hunting for frogs in the vernal pools, and Cottontail Rabbits scurrying through the fields on their way to their burrows in the historic rock walls. This time of day is perfect for catching a glimpse of Massachusetts’ magical creatures who are most active during the twilight hours or after dusk.
