Things to do This Weekend

Looking for something to do in Massachusetts this weekend? Here are some highlights across the state.

A sunny and warm-ish weekend is here! After a snow-filled week, join us at our special places this weekend to enjoy the outdoors. 

Enjoy the snow-covered terrain and the wonders of winter wildlife with us. At The Crane Estate in Ipswich, join CraneOutdoors for a sunset hike to Cedar Point with Firepits, a Winter Wildlife Walk, or rent snowshoes and choose your own adventure in the dunes. If you’re a snowshoer in the western part of the state, or are interested in trying a snowshoe adventure, join our partners at Adventure East for a Winter Ecology Snowshoe Walk at Notchview in Windsor.  

There’s a lot to see in the sky this weekend! Keep the snowshoe fun going with a Full Moon Snowshoe Hike with Adventure East at Notchview. At World’s End in Hingham, join us for an opportunity to see Mercury, Venus, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus, and Jupiter all in an arc across the sky at our Planet Parade Watch. A full moon joins us for the beginning of March, so head to Crane for a Dune Hike by the light of the full moon (family-friendly version available through CraneExplorers) 

Don’t miss special events. Maple Season is coming to an end – head to the last Adult Maple Stroll at Appleton Farms this year, and enjoy a sweet time. At Minton Stable Community Garden in Jamaica Plain, get your green thumb ready for the spring with a Pruning Workshop. At deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, in Lincoln, attend a screening of In Our Naturea 60-minute documentary exploring how nature-based education can help us reconnect in a time of rising loneliness, division, and environmental uncertainty.
