Spring Activities Around Harvard Square

The warming New England season calls for getting out and about. The Trustees, which operates more than 120 properties and preserved landscapes across the state, offers activities from hikes and paddling excursions to art exhibits and wild foraging workshops. Head to World’s End, in Hingham, for a “Full Moon Hike” and nature talk (March 13 and 14). Gather at Belle Isle Marsh, Boston’s last remaining salt marsh, for a “Bird Watching Exploration” (March 23). For a more human focus, enjoy an evening of traditional Irish music and dance with the ensemble Eight Feet Tall at the DeCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, in Lincoln, Massachusetts (March 29). Or catch the last of the March cooking classes at Powisset Farm (Dover), where chef Thi Bowles teaches “Mastering the Five French Mother Sauces” (March 19-20) and “Ooh, La La: Sensational French Salads.” Check out other opportunities at thetrustees.org/events.
