Join members from the MaineHealth Center for Health Improvement Community Health department at Pen Bay and Waldo Hospitals in partnership with Coastal Mountains Land Trust to get outdoors and stay active with guided hikes year-round.

This April, we’ll hike approximately 2 miles along the St. George River on the Appleton Preserve Trail, owned and maintained by our friends at Georges River Land Trust (GRLT). All are welcome!  It’s spring!  It may be muddy!  Dress accordingly.

No pets, please.

This group meets at trailheads throughout Knox and Waldo counties, usually on the first Thursday of each month.

Our classes reflect Lincoln Hospital's dedication to our philosophy of family-centered care.  Classes are taught by an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant from the family birth center who will bring her knowledge and experience to her teaching.  We will review how milk is made, why breastfeeding is so important, feeding cues and positions and so much more.  We use short videos and discussion to ensure you and your baby are off to a great start!  Also covered is prenatal colostrum harvesting as well as hand expression, pumping and storage of breastmilk.  The class is informal and allows for open discussion.  Please call the Lincoln Hospital Family Birth Center for questions at:  207.563.4536
