Join us at North Yarmouth’s Old Town House Park to learn about the beauty behind Wildflowers & Monarch Butterflies.
Old Town House Park is owned and managed by the Town of North Yarmouth. Located off Memorial Highway, the park is comprised of 62 acres of open space in the center of town that includes a 3.1 mile trail network. It’s 25 acres of upland fields along with 30 acres of seasonal flood plain and freshwater wetlands make this a recreational centerpiece for the town. The trails at Old Town House Park meander through wide, open fields, along the Royal River and through some riverside woodlands, and provide primarily easy walking opportunities. There should be many opportunities for butterfly sightings alongside many wildflowers!
