Join us for nature, community, and crafts as we prepare for the longest night of the year! Bring your family and friends to enjoy a guided walk through Blandford’s moonlit trails, then head into the Star Schoolhouse for a cozy evening of traditional solstice crafts over a cup of cocoa or tea. You’ll take home star ornaments, popcorn and cranberry garlands, and paper luminaries to light your dark winter evenings.
