Eating more plant-based meals is important for our health and for our environment, so please join Energize Acton for this informal outdoor “tailgate” potluck. Instead of coming together for a sporting event, we are gathering to celebrate our wonderful plant world, share recipes, and eat delicious food! EnergizeActon will provide vegetarian chili, cornbread, and hot cider and we ask you to bring a vegetarian or vegan “nibble” to share. Please dress for the weather! The address will be sent upon registration. Info and registration at https://community.massenergize.org/ActonMA/events/2075.

The Friends of Pine Hawk annual fall community service day is planned for the afternoon of Sunday, November 9, 2025 at 1pm. This year the event will again focus on the Trail Through Time, a heritage trail through town-owned conservation lands in North Acton. The Trail includes sites and stone structures representative of two distinct cultures, the colonial and the Native American, that existed both serially and concurrently within a relatively small geographical area. The focus will be on trail maintenance and Ian Bergemann, Acton’s Land Stewardship Coordinator, will be there to help guide our efforts. All ages welcome. If
