Save the Date: Mashomack Holiday Open House
Date: Saturday, December 13th, 3 – 5 PM
Join us to celebrate the holidays! Mulled cider, eggnog and the good cheer of the season are the perfect complement to the Manor House’s festive decorations. Sing songs, enjoy some sweet and savory treats, and even take part in a holiday nature craft or two.
Prescribed Burn to Take Place at Mashomack
Date: December 1st – December 20th
To restore Mashomack’s natural habitat, we will be conducting a prescribed burn during the December 1st – December 20th timeframe. Prescribed burns are weather dependent and require very specific conditions. Notifications will be circulated as widely as possible ahead of the burn.
Please note that while the preserve will remain open, we ask that visitors and hikers respect any associated trail closures. If you have questions about The Nature Conservancy’s use of prescribed fire, please contact Mashomack Conservation and Stewardship Manager Cody Miller at cody-marie.miller@tnc.org or 631-749-5421. |
