It’s the Pink Moon! April’s full moon is named after the pink wildflower (Phlox subulata) that blooms in April. You can join us across the state to enjoy a hike awash in the moon’s glow. From a hike in the dunes at Crane Beach in Ipswich (family friendly version offered, too), to a full moon owl prowl at Lyman Reserve in Bourne, Wareham and Plymouth, to experiencing deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum in Lincoln at nighttime, there’s a unique experience for everyone to enjoy. Other full moon hikes will happen at World’s End in Hingham and Powisset Farm in Dover.
There’s much to explore in Hingham this weekend! Visit the South Shore for fun at World’s End and Weir River Farm. Join our farm team for an Open Barnyard and Family Farm Chores, to meet the lovable animals living at Weir River. If you’d like to spot some more animals, check out a bird walk at World’s End. For adults seeking a guided hike experience, check out the Women’s Walk at World’s End. This hike is part of a series of women’s hikes and walks taking place at Trustees properties that aim to create safe and welcoming environments that empower women to get outdoors.
Signs of spring are aplenty! At Bartholomew’s Cobble in Sheffield, join our veteran wildflower guides for a guided tour of the Ledges Trail. Spring wildflowers are extremely unique and have extremely short bloom times. At Stevens-Coolidge House and Gardens in North Andover, the woodland forest is a revolving world of new plant species as far as the eye can see. Join us to discover what is sprouting around you this Spring at our Hike & Seek program. Participants will be emailed an activity bundle to help them look for clues along the trail. Also on the North Shore, Long Hill House and Garden tours resume at Long Hill in Beverly. Visit the breathtaking gardens and stately historic house and enjoy the rich history of a grand country estate, home of the Sedgwick family.
