Sturbridge Gardeners Community PresentsGarden Stroll Experience Series: Morning Bird Walk along the Quinebaug
Quinebaug River Canoe Trail
✨ Slow down. Listen. Observe.
Join us for a peaceful and immersive Bird Walk Along the Quinebaug River, part of our Garden Stroll Experience Series.
Led by a member of our gardening community, Denise Cabral is a longtime Massachusetts resident and passionate birdwatcher with over 60 years of experience, this experience invites you to slow down, observe, and connect with the natural world that surrounds our gardens. As we walk along the river, we’ll listen for birdsong, spot native species, and learn how birds play an essential role in our local ecosystems—and how you can welcome them into your own garden.
This experience is designed to be relaxing, educational, and accessible for all—whether you're new to birding or simply looking to reconnect with nature.
