Charron Farm Preserve

The Charron Farm Preserve was donated to the Attleboro Land Trust in 2023.  It will be officially opened to the public with a dedication ceremony on Saturday, October 10, 2026.

Extensive planning, design, permitting, and construction has been required to build a parking area, stormwater retention areas, flood compensation areas, fencing, signage, trails, and a boardwalk.  Some of this work is still in progress, but the trails will be marked and ready by Opening Day.

Most of the property will continue to be maintained as a hayfield, with the hay harvested annually by a local farmer.
