Hi, It looks like the link is broken for Sheldrake's Fall Festival. Go to www.sheldrakecenter.org or here's some info:
Explore nature, science, and books at Sheldrake’s 60-acre sanctuary. Take a StoryWalk around the pond - reading about a magical woods while walking through Sheldrake's own beautiful woodland landscape. Then come back to the lawn to build a fairy house (or bug house!) to take home. Be a scientist and explore life in the pond with one of our naturalists. Or maybe you'll choose to play Animal Olympics, go on a guided nature walk, listen to live music, or participate in one of the other fun activities we have planned! Buy discounted tickets before 10/15 at www.sheldrakecenter.org. Tickets "day of" are $5/members and $10/non-members.
