Sponsored by Harwich Conservation Trust and Provincetown Conservation Trust, join 12th generation Cape Codder Todd Kelley and native Wampanoag and Nipmuc Marcus Hendricks for this walk focusing on the nature of life out on the Province Lands. We will explore the time period from late-woodland to European contact and consider life according to the seasons at a place where the elements had direct bearing on survival. Witness the natural richness and stark harshness of the area and the impacts of social change evidenced in the land itself. Our story culminates with the Old Colony Railroad (1873) opening up land access to Provincetown and the further social changes that brought to the community.
