  • Saturday, May 1, 10:00 am and 2:00 pm – Blossom Bike Tours with Earthworks

    EarthWorks is pleased to announce they will be taking another chance with an orchard bike tour this spring! After being successfully rained out of the fall orchard tour, they are planning a Blossom Bike Tour to visit six urban orchards in several Boston neighborhoods! Be prepared for some urban biking with minimal hills and a great opportunity to preview where delicious fresh fruit will be ripe for the picking throughout the summer and fall. The EarthWorks staff will guide the tour and point out the variety of sumptuous fruit growing just outside your door! Please join then on Saturday May 1st (rain date Sunday May 2nd) at 10 am or 2 pm, leaving from the Stonybrook T Station during the Wake Up the Earth Festival! Come with your own bike and helmet, and they’ll provide the rest! Families are strongly encouraged to attend, but all minors must be accompanied by an adult. Contact Ruby with any questions or to register: ruby@earthworksboston.org.
