About Boot: Roland “Boot” Boutwell, a freelance itinerant naturalist, has been leading nature walks for The Friends of the Fells for nearly 25 years. He has also led walks and/or taught botany programs for a number of other organizations including The Trustees of Reservations, Arlington Community Education, The Massachusetts Association of Conservation Commissions, Winchester public schools, Wright-Locke Farm in Winchester, The New England Wild Flower Society and the Massachusetts Audubon Society.

About the Walk: Groundhog day, which marks the middle of winter, is almost here. Come enjoy a winter walk through lovely Virginia Wood in Stoneham. We’ll talk a little about Groundhog Day and the Groundhog, but the walk will focus on plant ID in winter as well as fun and interesting natural history. Perhaps we’ll find out who Virginia was.

Meet in the driveway of #1 Woodland Rd at the intersection of Woodland Rd and Pond St in Stoneham.

Steady rain or heavy snow cancels.
