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: Spring is definitely here! We will take a walk around Bellevue Pond and then head down to Straight Gully Brook to look for signs of spring, including some of our earliest flowers. In addition to the usual plant ID and fun and interesting natural history, our talk will be sprinkled with poetry, readings and lore relating to the spring season.
Meet at the Bellevue Pond parking lot opposite 70 South Border Road in Medford. For information, call Boot Boutwell at 781-729-4712.
