Go birding—with us at the end of the month or anytime that works for you! We are open by appointment for this month, as well as during any events we host. We’ll return to regular hours in May!
Sugaring season is upon us, and it’s time to look for some early returning migrants. We’re still watching birds, making art, and exploring winter as often as we can.
We are open by appointment through the rest of the winter, as well as during the special events we have this month.
February can be a mellow short month, sometimes! We are counting birds, working on grants, making wee owls, and generally getting behind the scenes tasks done. We are open by appointment mostly, but just drop in on Valentines Day (no appointment needed). We have volunteer opportunities too!
January is a great month for planning; applying for grants; thanking donors and volunteers; thinking about the year that was and the year to come. We are open by appointment while we do all of that.
November is mostly behind-the-scenes month. We have a lot to be thankful for, this month, and will post about all sorts of amazing people, places, and phenomena on instagram, facebook, and/or bluesky. We are open by appointment while we take the time to move art around, build the annual appeal, work on our newsletters, and update and invent new traveling exhibits. We have a few events, of course!
Take time to reflect, experience the peace in a late-autumn forest, or schedule a visit this month. The Museum is open by appointment and for special events from now through April 30.
The trails are open from sunrise to sunset, every day—we recommend using the south trails (Spear, Discovery, Story) rather than Gale’s, Pop’s, or Bob’s, thanks to flooding in July. Trail maps and more information are available on our website, and are posted at the museum and at kiosks as well. (Let us know if the wind moved any!)
Art, coffee, wildlife festivals, wood carving, migratory birds—even trees! This is a happening month. Events at the museum are below, or check the special upcoming list for a few extras.
The Museum is open Wednesday – Sunday, 10 am – 4 pm. The trails are open sunrise to sunset, every day. The best access to to those on the south, the pond side of the property, thanks to flooding in July. Libraries have passes you can check out, and admission is always free for members (https://birdsofvermont.org/membership/).
September is for transitions: an equinox, return to school, seasons officially change. Yet, it’s also continuous, with ongoing art shows, new chances to learn, and time to just enjoy birds (and possibly coffee).
The Museum is open Wednesday – Sunday, 10 am – 4 pm. The trails are open sunrise to sunset, every day—for now only on the pond side of the property, thanks to flooding in July. Libraries have passes you can check out, and admission is always free for members (https://birdsofvermont.org/membership/).
Last Saturday, the Green Mountain Woodcarvers held their annual show at the Museum. The news from WCAX came out to check it out. Enjoy this brief video of the show! Continue reading “Green Mountain Woodcarvers’ Annual Show 2024”
