Old Spokes Home and Intervale Center are co-hosting the third annual Bike Bloom

The Bike Bloom, a celebration of bikes and the outdoors, will begin with group rides starting at Old Spokes Home and ending at the Intervale Center for a party and Bike Show.

Start your day early with the sights and sounds of spring on a guided bird walk with Audubon Vermont bird experts through the beautiful Intervale landscape. We'll explore a variety of habitats—from open fields to forested trails—offering great opportunities to spot a wide range of bird species. This year, we’re heading out earlier to catch more bird activity during peak hours. We'll also visit a special area we've planted to support bird and pollinator habitat and check in on how it’s thriving. Whether you're a seasoned birder or just curious, all are welcome!  We'll have a couple extra binoculars but please bring your own if you have them.  Feel free to leave early if you need to dash off to work.
