Bring the family for a free day of fun at the North River Wildlife Sanctuary! There will be activities and snacks for all ages, plus a chance to stock up on all your summer gardening and birding needs.

Native plants will be on sale in addition to Gift Shop favorites like locally hand-crafted birdhouses and gifts, feeders, books, field guides and more.

Garden and bird experts will be on hand to answer questions, and tours offered through both the gardens and historic home of the sanctuary headquarters at 11:30 and 1:30. There will be guided bird walks at 10:30, 12:30 and 2:30, and nature activities for kids throughout the day.

Families will love the Story WalkTM trail and finding the birds hiding along Birder’s Lane. The winning prints from Mass Audubon's 2011 Photo Contest will also be on display through June 15.

The North River Wildlife Sanctuary is located at 2000 Main Street in Marshfield. For more information contact Emily Simmer at 781-837-9400.
