Join us as we discover Acton's past through a non-invasive field school using GPS technology to document the colonial era Wheeler Farm site in North Acton. The field school will focus on the science of archaeology including survey, research, cartography, field drawings and a field trip.

The TTT project is partially funded through Community Preservation Act funds and is offered in collaboration with the Science Discovery Museum.
