Pennywise Preserve

Attention Frost Bottom Lovers!

Walk, bike, horseback ride, or wheelchair.

From the Land Bank’s description: 175 acres located between the neighborhoods along the Vineyard Haven and West Tisbury Roads were purchased cooperatively by the Land Bank and the town of Edgartown. The significant portion — 118.7 consolidated acres of frost bottom and scrub oak — are under Land Bank care, via a conservation restriction from the town to the Land Bank.

Getting there: Trailhead located at the far end of South 18th Street in Arbutus Park.

For more information, visit the official Land Bank Website. Also, be sure to check out their cool map.
