Summer Storywalk in the Fells!
Friends of the Fells is delighted to announce our collaboration with the DCR, Medford Family Network, North Suburban Child and Family Resource Network, and Mass in Motion to offer another Story Walk in the Middlesex Fells Reservation!
Until August 28th, you are invited to participate in this self-led walk through the Fells featuring the book, “One Small Place in a Tree” by Barbara Brenner. Find pages of this beautifully illustrated book posted along the trail, and read about different ways of looking at nature. The walk will begin at Greenwood Park, in Stoneham (across from the Stone Zoo), and will continue along the Crystal Springs Trail in an easy, 1/3-mile loop.
Foster your child’s connection with nature as well as their literacy skills by participating in our Story Walk in the Fells!
The StoryWalk™ Project was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and developed in collaboration with the Vermont Bicycle & Pedestrian Coalition and the Kellogg Hubbard Library.

Do you have a fall Story walk? I have a Brownie troop earning their hiking badge and thought this might be a great option for them to choose from.
Hi Cheryl, We offer a Storywalk four times per year, in the winter, spring, summer and fall. The date for our next fall Storywalk is currently set for Oct 10-25. Please check our website for updates as the date approaches, and thanks for your inquiry!
I just wanted to drop a quick note to say how much we enjoy the Storywalk! As a local Stoneham mom, it’s a fun way for the kids to burn some energy and spend some extra time outdoors, thanks!!
Thanks so much for the note, Elisa. I’m happy to hear you enjoyed it!
