Location: Mèmak Preserve, North Yarmouth

Curriculum: Come join us for a gentle walk in the woods as we mark the winter solstice. We'll look and listen for signs of winter preparations already underway in trees, birds, and other animals. What do we notice? What's happening that's harder to see? The walk will include a brief solstice ceremony.

While the paths are generally easy, walking poles might be helpful if there's been fresh snowfall. Be sure to dress for cold weather!

Naturalist: Sukie Curtis, Margaret Reimann, and Anne Payson

Get Out! Nature Walks

These Get Out! Nature Walks are volunteer-led regular trips with trained master naturalists. Join us for a well-planned, no cost, guided adventure. Monthly on the fourth Wednesday; always free; rain, snow, or shine. Jointly offered by both CCLT and the Royal River Conservation Trust, the walks take place at preserves in the towns of Chebeague Island, Cumberland, Yarmouth, North Yarmouth, Pownal, New Gloucester, and Durham. Our curriculum is targeted at adults and engaged youth. Because the purpose is nature observation, we ask that dogs do not join us. Email us with any questions.
