SUMMARY:Easy to Grow Vegetables
DESCRIPTION:Join UNH Extension Master Gardener Maureen Sinclair to learn how to start growing vegetables without getting overwhelmed. What are the “easy” vegetables to grow? How do you pick healthy plants from the garden center? What should we be observing in our gardens? All these questions and many more will be answered to help you maximize early successes\, learn by doing\, and have fun growing vegetables. \nLogistics: \nThis presentation will take place both indoors and outdoors at the Massabesic Center. We’ll start with a lecture in the main conference room and then head out to the garden\, weather-permitting\, to observe vegetable garden practices in action. The small partially fenced vegetable garden at Massabesic produces 400-500 pounds of food every year\, despite sharing some of our crops with the local wildlife. \nDress for the weather for the short\, easy walk from the dirt parking lot to the building\, and from the building to the gardens. The trail through the gardens is flat packed gravel\, suitable for most mobility devices including walkers and wheelchairs. Muddy conditions may be present\, especially if you choose to walk into the grassy areas surrounding some garden spaces. An email will be sent out the day before the program with weather expectations. \nThis program is intended for adults. Children are welcome\, however in the event of disruptions\, we ask that children are accompanied by a guardian to enjoy the Nature Lab or gardens until the presentation concludes. Accommodations for persons with limited mobility\, sensory concerns\, or other accessibility needs can be provided if you contact Massabesic Center Director Kimmie Whiteman in advance. \nCost:\n$10 for NH Audubon members and UNH Ext. Master Gardeners\n$15 for non-members \nSupport our programs and join or renew your membership today! Not sure of your membership status? Email our member services department or call (603) 224-9909 x310. \nRegistration required by April 16th. If you miss the registration deadline\, please email Kimmie Whiteman to inquire about availability. Walk-ins will be accepted if space allows\, but late registrants may miss pre-workshop or cancellation communications. Limit 30 attendees. By attending this event\, you and anyone you register on behalf of agree to NH Audubon’s Outdoor Education Program Liability Release & Agreement Waiver. \nThis program is brought to you through an ongoing partnership between New Hampshire Audubon and University of New Hampshire Extension’s Master Gardener Program.

SUMMARY:Birding Outing at Deering Wildlife Sanctuary
DESCRIPTION:Join NH Audubon for a birding outing at Deering Wildlife Sanctuary! \nThis is an informal birding outing that will meet at the Deering Wildlife Sanctuary parking lot and explore along the trails with NH Audubon biologist\, Diane De Luca. All ages and skill levels of birders are welcome. If you are new to birding\, come and learn the basics! If you are an avid birder\, come to learn new techniques\, network with other birders\, or share your expertise with the group. \nAt this time of year\, we are focused on spring phenology – the cyclical changes we observe across the seasons – and will take note of migratory species\, budding and blooming plants\, and more! Fox Pond has been known to be a haven for species such as Eastern Bluebirds\, Great Crested Flycatchers\, Wood Ducks\, and Hooded Mergansers. \nThis is a free event. Please dress for the weather\, with sturdy shoes. Expect to walk between 1-2 miles over uneven trails through grassy and wooded terrain. Trails may be soggy or muddy in the rainy season.

SUMMARY:Party Animals Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Party Animals by Bethany Clarke \nThis exhibit runs at the McLane Center in Concord from March 11-May 2\, 2026. \nDescription: Handprinted linocuts featuring an array of native New Hampshire plants and animals. The images are all initially sketched by hand and then transferred onto linoleum blocks. They are then carved with a blade. For printing\, the blocks are rolled with ink\, and paper is pressed onto them with a barren and body weight. When pulled up\, the paper includes a reverse image of the block. All prints have natural variances in tone due to human touch\, which is what makes them special. \n \nArt exhibit viewing access may be restricted during private event rentals. Calling ahead to confirm is recommended. \nBio: Bethany is a public school teacher and linocut printmaker living in Concord. Her prints feature a whimsical array of plants and animals native to New Hampshire. In addition to printing on paper\, she upcycles thrifted clothing with hand-printed patches and scrap quilted appliqué pieces.

SUMMARY:Bob Hull Memorial Bluebird Walk field trip with the Seacoast Chapter
DESCRIPTION:Bob Hull Memorial Bluebird Walk – Saturday\, April 25th 8:00 am \nHelp trip leader David Blezard clean out bluebird boxes\, look for early migrants and lingering winter birds\, and get yourself in the mood for spring. \nEach year\, volunteers join together on a field trip to repair and maintain Bluebird boxes throughout Durham in honor of Bob Hull and his wife Sheila. Bob maintained\, replaced\, and installed countless Bluebird boxes in Durham. Each year we honor these two beloved members of the Seacoast chapter by carrying on their work in maintaining and repairing these boxes. \nDuring our annual trip we visit many locations where Bob originally installed boxes. We replace those in need of replacing\, fix what we can\, and clean out the boxes. We also search for early spring migrants. Birds we frequently see on the trip include Eastern Bluebird\, Brown Creeper\, Pileated Woodpecker\, Fox Sparrow\, Wilson’s Snipe\, American Kestrel\, Killdeer\, and much\, much more! \nIt can also be interesting to dissect the nests of bluebirds and the other birds that use these nest boxes. The trip provides great opportunities to connect with chapter members and is a favorite of many! \nMeet at the Mill Rd Plaza in Durham at 8:00. Contact: David Blezard dblezard@mac.com or call 603-343-1223. Registration is not required.

SUMMARY:Monarch Waystations Session One: Practical Conservation for an At-risk Native Pollinator
DESCRIPTION:The Monarch is a formerly abundant butterfly species that has experienced dramatic and widespread declines since the early 1990’s. Conservation efforts are underway across the US to understand and take action to stop this decline. In this three-part program series\, participants will learn about Monarch natural history\, conservation concerns\, and how to create valuable habitat for Monarchs and other native pollinators in their own backyard. With the support of NH Audubon staff\, each participant will be coached through designing a Monarch Waystation that they can plant in their own yard\, neighborhood\, or workplace. Waystations are patches of habitat containing native plantings to support Monarch butterflies through their full annual cycle. Such native plantings also have direct benefits to other pollinator species. \nThe three sessions of this program will cover the following topics and activities: \nSession 1: Overview of Monarch natural history and conservation\, including: \n\nLife cycle\nHabitat requirements\nSeasonal migration\nThreats to Monarch populations\nConservation strategies\nNOTE: This session is classroom-based and will be held in the PSNH Room at the McLane Center. These facilities are accessible to people with all levels of mobility.\n\nSession 2: Monarch Waystation tour \n\nReview life cycle and habitat requirements for each life stage\nIdentify host plant species for larva\nIdentify nectar plant species for adults\nDiscuss nontarget benefits to native pollinators\nExplore garden design to maximize benefit to Monarchs\nLearn about garden maintenance schedule\nNOTE: This session will primarily take place outdoors.

SUMMARY:Backyard and Beyond in Watercolor Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Backyard and Beyond in Watercolor Exhibit by Elaine Packard: May 6-July 2 at the McLane Center in Concord \nArt exhibit viewing access may be restricted during private event rentals. Calling ahead to confirm is recommended. \n  \nVisit the McLane Center on May 14 to celebrate Elaine’s watercolor exhibit with the artist and NH Audubon staff! \nExhibit Description: Backyard birds\, flowers\, insects\, and animals have been the inspiration for my watercolor journey. While I am fairly new to this medium\, I don’t need to look very far for subject matter! Waterfowl and owls are favorites of mine as well\, with their varied colors and textures. \nI also enjoy the beauty of New England and like to take pictures of landscapes\, mountains\, lakes\, and local landmarks to use as reference photos. A late summer (first-time) trip to the top of Mt. Washington last year via the Cog Railway was truly stunning and I plan to create a few more paintings with the incredible clouds\, and distant mountain ranges. \nThank you for supporting the NH Audubon Society and I hope you enjoy my paintings and get a sense of the beautiful part of the country we live in! \nExamples of Elaine’s art. (Click to enlarge.)\nBio: From a young age\, I found happiness in quiet little things; flowers\, birds\, animals and scenery and I have integrated them into my artwork. I took many art classes in my high school years and received an Art Scholarship to Rivier College (which wasn’t utilized). Later in life\, time constraints of a full-time career and raising a family meant something needed to take the back seat. Life changes in recent years have allowed me the time to return to painting\, which I am enjoying immensely! \nI believe that continuous learning and being curious helps keep you young and I am currently discovering the beautiful subtleties and technical aspects of watercolor painting. I enjoy this medium very much\, although I must admit; there have been some struggles along the way. \nI tend to work towards realism\, studying the little details of my subjects\, moss on a tree branch or the anatomy of a birds’ wings. While birds and animals are some of my favorite subjects\, seascapes and landscapes are a good challenge and learning opportunity.\nOne of my goals was achieved last year; to show my work in a gallery. This was an accomplishment for me personally. The growth from that experience will remain with me for a long time. Meeting art enthusiasts\, collectors\, and other artists is something I enjoyed and am eager to continue. \nMy hope is that you find a sense of peace and calmness in my artwork and allow your mind to slow down\, notice the small things and enjoy nature\, because that is what I feel when I am creating.
