Tour of Squibnocket Pond Reservation
The Squibnocket Pond Reservation is a 336-acre property jointly owned and managed by the Martha's Vineyard Land Bank Commission and the Sheriff's Meadow Foundation. It was purchased from the Kennedy-Schlossberg family in 2020 and has just opened to the public. It is a significant conservation area with a rich history and diverse ecological features. The reservation is divided into two non-contiguous sections: North and South.
Take a private tour of this spectacular property with Adam Moore, Executive Director of Sheriff’s Meadow Foundation. Transportation to the site for the authors will be provided. You will need to spray for ticks and wear proper clothing.
