Boston Basecamp is a bi-weekly newsletter for families who want to get outside together while living in and around Boston.

I share personal recommendations on trails, parks, and outdoor experiences within easy reach of the city. You’ll find practical guides for getting your family into nature: where to go, what to bring, and how to make it fun with kids in tow. I also share tips for parents to sneak in solo outdoor time such as early morning rides or quick post-work runs to help recharge.

You need someone who’s already figured out which playgrounds are a hit, which trails are balance bike-friendly, and which cafe has the best almond croissant for the inevitable snack break. I’m Doug, a partent of two young kids in Greater Boston, and starting October 25th, I’ll share what I’ve learned every other Sunday.

Free to start. Unsubscribe anytime.
