Sunday, Oct. 23rd:
Mushroom Walk
(free, but pre-register)

Join Harwich Conservation Trust walk leader Wesley Price for a walk and talk at the beautiful D. Isabel Smith Monomoy River Conservation Lands on Sunday October 23rd from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m.  The walk will begin with a brief 15 minute talk on the ecological significance of the watershed, followed by a leisurely hour long mycologically (mushroom) focused walk/talk.

Mr. Price studied biology as an undergraduate and is currently working on a master’s degree in sustainable design.  He founded the Cape Cod Mycological Society in 2013 with the goal of inspiring a deeper understanding and respect for the ecosystems which support the biodiversity of life on earth. This walk is free, but space is limited as this walk is limited to 20 participants, so pre-registration is required by emailing events@harwichconservationtrust.org.

Fall Walk Series,
The First People: Before &
After the First Encounter

Join 12th generation Cape Codder Todd Kelley and native Wampanoag/Nipmuc Marcus Hendricks on a series of walks exploring the lives of the First People local to this area and the circumstances that led up to their first encounter with the Pilgrims. We will then examine the consequences of interactions that followed up to the time of King Philip’s War in 1675.  The Harwich Conservation Trust, Wellfleet Conservation Trust, Truro Conservation Trust, and Native Land Conservancy have partnered to offer this unique walk series. The land trusts in each of the three towns preserve natural lands within their communities while the Native Land Conservancy preserves natural lands across eastern Massachusetts. Formed in 2013, the Native Land Conservancy is the first native-led land trust established east of the Mississippi River.   (Photo of Wampanoag/Nipmuc Marcus Hendricks, courtesy of Rick Moriarty)

Cost:
$45.00 for the series (if you join one or all three walks, it’s a one-time fee of $45.00)
