Fresh Pond Nature Walk
(Collins Branch Library)
Monday, January 13
10:15 to 11:15 am
Meets at the Ranger Station (under the clock tower)
250 Fresh Pond Parkway
Fresh Pond Reservation, Cambridge
Join us for a relaxing walk of Fresh Pond with Ranger Tim! No two weeks are the same in nature, and Tim will share his insights about what's growing, changing, and blooming in the neighborhood. This walk will meet on-site at Fresh Pond because the Collins Branch Library is currently under construction. This is a winter weather walk so clothing for cold temperatures is suggested. For more information or with any questions, please contact Michael at mroberson@cambridgeMA.gov.
You can find a link to register for the walk here. Registration is required for this event.
Winter Wandering: Exploring the Golf Course

Have you ever been curious about the natural elements throughout the Fresh Pond Golf Course? Explore the facets of place and nature with Ranger Tim as we observe a naturalist’s view of January through the often unseen world that is the additional open green space around Fresh Pond. Please take note that this program meets at the Golf Course parking lot (not the Ranger Station) and will travel across uneven terrain in winter weather. Open to all. Questions?
