Walk

Come explore what nature has in store at some of our most amazing wild places on the North Shore. Joppa Flats' engaging and experienced staff will introduce families to local beaches, forests, and wetlands to make observations in nature, identify wildlife, and enjoy hands on science activities outdoors. Sign up for one, some, or all!

Canceled - The Essex County Greenbelt Association and North Shore Nature Programs to meet some of our favorite critters! Some critters get a bad rap! But there is lots to love about the creepy, wiggly, and crawly creatures in our woods! We'll look for spiders, bugs, centipedes and millipedes, as well as signs of cool predators like owls, coyotes, and weasels.

Essex Hertiage invites you to learn the true causes and events behind the Salem Witch Trials in our documentary film, then discover the myths during our walking tour. The Salem Witch Trials happened over 300 years ago, and it has been dramatized in books, documentaries, movies, and even TV shows. Over the years it has been presented so many times in so many ways that the line between fact and fiction gets blurred.

Join Family Promise North Shore Boston at our annual Walk to End Homelessness. This will be our 10th Annual Walk to End Homelessness and we hope to make it our LARGEST yet! 2023 has proven to be one of the most difficult years yet for the families we are serving. Rent prices are higher than ever, resources are scarce and there is absolutely no housing available for anyone - especially those we serve. We need your help in order to continue providing these families with critical services in order to prevent and end their situations of homelessness!
