    Explore nature in early winter in this hour-long ramble across fields and glens at Fruitlands on Saturday, December 27 beginning at 1 pm. Museum interpreters will lead participants in a guided walk along Fruitlands’ most notable features – a glacial beach, archaeological sites, scenic vistas of the Nashua River Valley and a thriving forest – as we watch for signs of winter. This walk covers a mile of varied terrain and should be considered moderately easy. Trail shoes, walking stick and warm hats recommended. No registration required.
