    Sheriff’s Meadow Sanctuary

    Where it all got started for the Sheriff’s Meadow Foundation.

    Not to mention 20 unspoiled acres in the heart of Edgartown.

    Sheriff’s Meadow Says: The public is welcome and invited to enjoy Sheriff’s Meadow Sanctuary by walking along the Ruth and Ed Brooks Trail. The Brooks Trail offers sweeping scenic views of Eel Pond and Nantucket Sound, not to mention attractive interior views of the Sheriff’s Meadow pond, John Butler’s Mudhole and the surrounding environment. The Brooks Trail is also notable for its olfactory pleasures, especially in the spring. One’s nose is treated to one fragrance after another; some foreshadowing what awaits on the trail, as the aroma arrives before the view.
