SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Experience a Full Sturgeon Moon at Mount Hope Farm
DESCRIPTION:Due to weather forecast of predicted rain for this evening\, Bristol Land trust is cancelling this event.\n________________________________\nBristol Land Conservation Trust and Mount Hope Farm invite you to witness the rising full moon. Participants will meet at the Barn across from the Governor Bradford House for a brief “Welcome and Introduction” at 6:30pm.
