Full Moon Hike at Weeden Farm – *CAPACITY FULL*
Friday, September 29th (6:30 p.m.)
Celebrate RI Land Trust Days with a walk in the moonlight!
In the days before tractor lights, the full Harvest Moon in September helped farmers to gather their crops despite the diminishing daylight hours. We’ll use the beautiful glow of September’s Harvest Moon to illuminate the trails beside Weeden Farm’s thriving agricultural fields on a special guided hike at twilight. We’ll discuss the history of Weeden Farm, listen for owls and other nocturnal wildlife, and more.
After the short hike, guests are encouraged to enjoy the campfire and bring their own snacks or beverages. SKLT will have s’mores ingredients and warm cider.
