Join multi-media artist Perri Lynch Howard for an immersive art and wellness experience on a sound walk and journaling workshop at the Flora B. Peirce Nature Trail, a serene retreat nestled in the woods and wetlands of New Bedford. During this unique soundwalk, participants will focus on actively listening to the surrounding environment. The 40-minute journey will be followed by time for journaling, allowing you to reflect on the sounds you encounter—whether from nature or memories of past experiences.
Flora B. Peirce Nature Trail
About the Trail
The Flora B. Peirce Nature Trail, a true gem of New Bedford, winds through meadows, forests, and wetlands. Located adjacent to the expansive 1,850-acre Acushnet Cedar Swamp, this natural haven is home to a rich variety of wildlife, including deer, turkeys, coyotes, and a wide range of songbirds thriving in this protected network of habitats.
The trail features a tranquil pond, teeming with frogs, turtles, salamanders, and dragonflies. This pond eventually feeds into the Paskamansett/Slocums River, which flows through Dartmouth and into Buzzards Bay!
