SUMMARY:Friends of Pine Hawk: Nashoba Brook Community Service Day
DESCRIPTION:The Friends of Pine Hawk annual fall community service day is planned for the afternoon of Sunday\, November 9\, 2025 at 1pm. This year the event will again focus on the Trail Through Time\, a heritage trail through town-owned conservation lands in North Acton. The Trail includes sites and stone structures representative of two distinct cultures\, the colonial and the Native American\, that existed both serially and concurrently within a relatively small geographical area. The focus will be on trail maintenance and Ian Bergemann\, Acton’s Land Stewardship Coordinator\, will be there to help guide our efforts. \nAll ages welcome. If you would like to help\, please RSVP to Bob Ferrara at 617-513-9355 or rferrara@mit.edu. Also there is an optional pay-your-own-way brunch beforehand at 11:30am at the Blackbird Cafe\, where Ian and Bob can share some of the special history of these Town-owned lands\, which comprise the largest undeveloped area in Acton.
