Advance registration is necessary. Join EcoTarium's anthropologist Russ Handsman for an exploration of urban and rural ecosystems and their interconnections over the last century and a half. Board a motorcoach at EcoTarium and head to Clinton, Massachusetts, for a walking tour of the Lancaster Mills neighborhood where much of the world's gingham was woven in the 1800s. Following a tour of the Clinton Historical Museum and a gourmet box lunch on the Green in Clinton, it's off to Princeton and the Wachusett Meadow Wildlife Sanctuary of the Massachusetts Audubon Society. Stroll nature trails, admiring autumn's display, and discover how forest and field ecosystems changed as industrial towns and cities grew.
Space is limited, and reservations are required.
Minimum registrations needed by October 19 for tour to proceed.
