Winter Break Week at Harvard Forest

"Reading and Conserving New England: Insights into a Landscape's Past, Present, and Future," now in its 3rd year, is an immersive, interdisciplinary program for Harvard students (undergraduate and graduate) from all concentrations.

Daily hands-on activities and field trips led by Harvard faculty and researchers will offer a variety of perspectives on real-world ecological and conservation topics. Workshops with regional artists and writers will deepen the exploration of these topics.

There is no cost to students. Books, supplies (including art supplies and snowshoes), and all other on-site needs will be provided, including comfortable housing, a full meal plan, and transportation to and from the Forest (1.5-hr drive).
