The upcoming BioBlitz, organized by the Colby-Sawyer College ENV 301 Class, will be held on the Cassey Brook Preserve, a property owned by the Ausbon Sargent Land Preservation Trust. This event focuses on exploring the vernal pools and encouraging the public to engage with nature.

The primary goal of the BioBlitz is to document biodiversity that may not typically be captured on trail cameras, such as smaller organisms or plant life. It’s an opportunity to discover the hidden details of the ecosystem while fostering a deeper connection between participants and the natural environment. By involving the community in this hands-on activity, the BioBlitz aims to inspire appreciation for local wildlife and ecosystems, bringing people outdoors and encouraging environmental stewardship.

This event is free and open to all, however registration is required. Please contact Jamie Wilson to sign up at: stewardship@ausbonsargent.org(link sends e-mail) or call 603-526-6555

Visit the Planning Board page on the town website for more information.

Join us for an evening of riveting storytelling, historical insight, and a deeper look at the power and fragility of free speech.

New Hampshire native Dan Billin worked as a newspaper reporter in the Granite State for seventeen years. His nose for a story and years of relentless research have brought to light a wealth of detail about the shocking and long-forgotten tale of Noyes Academy and the extraordinary Black students who dared seek an education in antebellum New Hampshire. He has now applied those same journalistic instincts to illuminating how putting the state motto, “Live Free or Die,” on NH license plates kicked off a battle over the First Ammendment.

In 1969, when New Hampshire officials decided to put the state’s motto – “live free or die” – on its license plates, many citizens viewed the act as an endorsement of the deeply unpopular war being waged in Vietnam and protested by covering up or altering the motto. In response, authorities cracked down hard: arresting, fining, and sometimes even incarcerating those who engaged in duct-tape dissent. People appealed their convictions, sparking a legal contest over the First Amendment that went all the way to the United States Supreme Court. In this multimedia presentation, historian and former newspaper reporter Dan Billin tells a uniquely New Hampshire tale illustrating the genius – and the fragility – of the First Amendment.

Brian Donahue will be speaking about his book Slow Wood, which details his experiences building a home from the wood growing on his family farm. In his book he talks about practicing “worst first” forestry and explores the relationship between Americans’ and their forests.  

This event is free and open to all but due to limited seating, registration is required and limited. To register, email: stewardship@ausbonsargent.org(link sends e-mail) or call 603-526-6555

As summer lingers on the horizon, Pumpkin Blossom Farm invites you to a Garden Party designed to delight the senses and celebrate the season’s quiet beauty. Held just before the lavender fields burst into bloom, this intimate gathering is an ode to fresh flavors, slow living, and the magic of farm-grown ingredients.

At the heart of the evening is a lavender-infused charcuterie and passed appetizer experience, an artfully arranged tablescape overflowing with local meats and cheeses, sun-ripened fruits and produce, and thoughtfully curated sweet & savory pairings infused with the essence of lavender. Every bite is meant to be savored, every detail chosen to highlight the simple elegance of seasonal ingredients, and the abundance of the harvest season.

Inspired by the essence of the changing seasons, Chef Paul Serrano of Chez Paul has prepared a lush menu with vibrant colors and flavors to perfectly complement the event. After a 30 year career as a civil engineer, Paul has pursued his passion to be a Chef and to connect with people through food. Starting at the bottom in NH seacoast kitchens, Paul is currently the; Chapter Chef at Alpha Gamma Rho on the campus of the University of New Hampshire; Garden Chef at Bedrock Gardens in Lee, NH, Farm Chef at Lavender Fields in Warner, NH, and is the Chef Owner of Chez Paul Cookery, a personal chef business.

Complementing the feast, our signature lavender cocktails will be available at the Zen Bar—floral, herby, refreshing, and balanced, designed to capture the spirit of early summer in every sip, as well as a craft Lavender Lemon Lager, brewed for the event by our friends at The Last Chair Brewery in Plymouth, NH. With a drink in hand, wander the fields, take in the golden-hour glow, and enjoy the peaceful ambiance of the farm as day drifts into evening and the hazy pink sunset streaks across the sky.

Light, folksy, & laidback acoustic tones will frame the event with a serene and laid back ambiance, as Live Music finds its way into the spaces between conversation.

This is an event for those who appreciate life’s little luxuries: inspired flavors, good conversation, and an atmosphere of joy and abundance . Whether you’re gathering with friends, treating yourself to an unforgettable evening, or simply looking for a moment of beauty and connection, the Garden Party is an invitation to pause, indulge, and welcome the season ahead.

6:15pm to 6:30pm : Arrival and Check-In
We recommend arriving no earlier/later than 15 minutes before the class begins to check in and acclimate yourself to the peaceful ambiance of our open-air candlelit barn. Arriving early allows you to fully immerse yourself in the serene setting of the barn and prepare your mind and body for the class. Get settled, sync in with yourself, breathe, and tap into the here and now.

6:30 PM – Candlelight Relaxation Yoga (60 minutes)
Experience a tranquil and rejuvenating yoga session designed to bring harmony to your mind, body, and spirit. This slow-paced practice emphasizes mindful movement, deep stretches, and intentional breathing. The session concludes with guided progressive relaxation and a meditative stillness period of shavasana. Enhance your relaxation by draping one of our heavenly lavender-scented eye pillows for an added touch of serenity, or use our farm made Yoga Mat Spray to cleanse and naturally scent your mat and props.
Held in our candlelit barn loft adorned with twinkle lights and candles, this class offers a uniquely calming atmosphere. Students of all ages and abilities are warmly welcome to join this restorative experience.

7:30 PM – 7:45 PM: Lavender Sweet Treat
Following your practice, indulge in a delightful lavender-infused treat. Savor a refreshing glass of lavender lemonade and a delectable baked good infused with the soothing essence of lavender. It’s the perfect way to cap off an evening of relaxation.

What to Bring
To ensure a comfortable experience, we recommend you bring the following:
Your own yoga mat
A blanket or cozy sweater
Water
Optional personal props such as blocks, straps, or bolsters
Please note that we have a limited supply of mats, bolsters, and straps available in the barn studio that you are welcome to use if you do not own any gear!

Post-Class Bliss After class, linger a little longer to soak in the peaceful vibes. Enjoy complimentary lavender lemonade as you find a cozy spot on the grass or relax in one of our Adirondack chairs. Bask in the post-yoga glow and connect with nature.
