Wander Tin Mountain's Albany property on a guided tour and see what winter has in store! Interesting animal tracks, our resident birds, beautiful conifers, Chase Pond and unexpected sites await us. The terrain is variable, and so is the weather, so dress for the day and (depending on the snow conditions) wear snowshoes or boot traction devices. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
We have all snowshoe sizes available for use; they are free for members and $15pp for non-members (so consider becoming a member).
Walk-ins welcome

Join Joe Callanan, natural history educator and wildlife photographer, to learn all about the owls that live in our New England woods. See exciting images of owls in the wild captured by Joe’s photography. Joe will share the intimate details of their lives as we learn about the natural history that makes each species so successful living right here in our midst under the cover of darkness. Be prepared to be amazed - this will be a hoot!

Snowy owls, horned larks, short-eared owls and northern shrikes are just some of the interesting birds seen at Plum Island during the winter. Bring binoculars, a lunch, and dress warm as we head south to Parker River Wildlife Refuge. Weather date: Friday, March 7.

The price of PV solar panels has come own significantly, while their efficiency has increased, making going solar more affordable than ever! Not sure where to start? No problem! Join us for Going Solar; Meet Your Neighbors for the chance to meet area home and small business owners who have installed or are about to install solar. They will share why they’ve gone solar and explain the steps they went through to choose an installer. Installers and other industry professionals will be on hand to help explain what the process is including site suitability, existing electric usage and tying to the grid for net metering. We’ll also discuss battery backup. In short, if you've been considering solar, you won't want to miss this!

Increasing development is degrading and disconnecting the landscape and habitat around us. Hear from a panel of biologists about wildlife, what is causing the reduction in habitat, what can be done to enhance and diversify the landscape, and share resources and opportunities to create habitat at any scale.
Panelists: Deb Perkins, First Light Wildlife Habitats; Dave King, Northern Research Station; Debra Marnich, Chocorua Lake Conservancy; Jessie Dubuque, White Mountain National Forest; Nels Liljedahl, Natural Resource Conservation Service.
This program is part of the Sense of Place Community Forum Series
