Trail Updates and News

On this page, we list any trail-related issues of which we are currently aware. If you have any updates, please use our Report a Problem page.

  • We now own the Mary Herrick Tree Farm! New signage and kiosks will be goign up soon and don’t worry, the Christmas Tree Farm will not be affected.

  • Please remember to abide by Private Property signs.

  • Please do not pile stones into what some call “cairns”. It is confusing for walkers and not what everyone wishes to see while they are walking in nature…one man’s sculpture is another man’s intrusion.

  • The Davis Hay Field on Main Street was seeded with native wildflowers so fingers crossed we will see some beginning to sprout this season. This will be an ongoing project.

  • Remember to Opt Out your property from pesticide, larvicide spraying in the spring.

Boxford has a dog waste issue on our trails. People are NOT removing their dog poop…

We have posted friendly signs to remind people to remove their pet’s poop, so please, respect your fellow walkers and the town’s well water. We do not need more E Coli in our waterways and no one wants poo on their shoe or in their cars.
