Celebrate the wonders & mysteries of reptiles native to our home state. Have you ever seen a corn snake and wondered how it got its name? Would you like to see two real Blanding turtles?

Come and learn about the adaptations of reptiles native to our area. We’ll sing a reptile song and take a look at some real turtle shells.

Then children are invited to take part in a fun turtle-inspired craft. Led by Stephen DeFlorio, Teacher/Naturalist at Apple Valley Montessori School in Sudbury. Mr. DeFlorio previously worked as a naturalist and education coordinator for Mass Audubon Society, and has been involved in turtle nesting surveys in Concord for many years.

This event sponsored by Apple Valley Montessori School in Sudbury. All ages welcome. Free. Pre-registration appreciated but drop-ins welcome.
