Join the Newfound Lake Region Association (NLRA) as we explore fall’s colorful leaves at Grey Rocks during Newfound Nature Station, a free program that connects youth and families to the natural world.   This event will be held at Grey Rocks Conservation Area at 178 N Shore Road, Hebron, NH on October 14 & 18 from 10 am to 12 pm. The bright yellows, oranges, and reds tell us that the seasons are changing and colder weather is on its way. Leaves are important for trees, so why do so many shed them in the autumn? And what can their striking colors tell us about their roles in our forests? Join NLRA educators as we learn more about local species, take a closer look at the importance of leaves, and make a craft to take home. This program is free and open to all.

Newfound Nature Station, along with other family programs and events, is part of NLRA’s year-round work to encourage residents and visitors to enjoy the natural beauty around them, learn more about the environment and how to protect it, and fall in love with the Newfound Watershed.  By connecting the people of Newfound to the wonders around them, NLRA works to inspire the next generation of stewards and fulfill the mission of protecting Newfound Lake and its watershed.  Along with programs like Newfound Nature Station, NLRA maintains Grey Rocks Conservation Area in all seasons as a place for people and wildlife alike.  It offers a new conservation center, walking trails, a picnic area, fishing alcoves, and a non-motorized boat launch and is frequented by wildlife like loons, turtles, and bald eagles as well as people.  Learn more about NLRA including other upcoming events at NewfoundLake.org.
