Hitchcock Woods Foundation Seasonal Homeschool Nature Walks

Join the Hitchcock Woods Foundation for a seasonal nature walk for homeschool families! Each season we will explore the flora and fauna of the Woods. We will meet at the Stable on the Woods entrance (263 Rubins Cottage Lane) and hike a ~1.2 mile loop. Trails are sandy and contain rolling topography, but we will avoid steep hills. Please note there are no strollers allowed in Hitchcock Woods.
