Things to do This Weekend

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

It wouldn’t be April without some showers, but that won’t stop us from enjoying early Spring! 

It wouldn’t be spring without animals! This weekend, our farms bring fun. Peter Rabbit’s Spring Egg Roll and Pizza Party is on at Powisset Farm in Dover. At The FARM Institute on Martha’s Vineyard, enjoy the Annual Egg Hunt. And at Weir River Farm in Hingham, take part in Family Farm Chores, or visit the Open Barnyard (Sensory-Friendly Hours offered). 

Tours at Long Hill are back! Step inside the beauty and layered history of Long Hill in Beverly with a guided tour of its breathtaking gardens and historic house. Check out The Legacies of Long Hill Friday and Saturday! 

Prepping your garden? Join us for our long-awaited annual seed swap. Swap seeds, stories, and gardening tips at a free community event hosted by The Trustees Boston Community Gardens and The Food Project’s Dudley Greenhouse, located in Roxbury.
