The month of August has a special benefit for members of The Fells! We have a reciprocal membership with the Enfield Shaker Museum and would like to invite you to join us for a members’ only tour of the buildings and garden.

Enfield Shaker Village is nestled in a lush valley between Shaker Mountain and Mascoma Lake in New Hampshire. This special place has been cherished for over 230 years–first by the Shakers who lived, worked, and worshiped here from 1793 to 1923, and now by Museum staff, donors, members, and visitors from around the world. The Shakers believed in equality of the sexes and races, celibacy, communal ownership of property, and separation from the “World’s people”. They opposed war and sought perfection in their work. In their large and architecturally distinct communities the Shakers achieved a remarkable degree of sustainability and self-sufficiency. Visit Enfield Shaker Museum to learn firsthand about the Shakers who lived, worked, and worshiped there.

This is an exclusive opportunity with limited capacity. Please email info@thefells.org to reserve your spot today!
