The Sheriff’s Meadow Foundation has purchased a new property on Chappaquiddick, the conservation foundation recently announced. The 2.3-acre parcel of land sits on Manaca Hill, near Chappy Point. Viewed from the Edgartown side of the Chappaquiddick ferry, it is located on the right side of the small island, across the street from the Chappy Beach Club.

Sheriff’s Meadow Executive Director Adam Moore said the foundation plans to create a publicly accessible path on the property, which will showcase views of Katama Bay and Cape Pogue. The foundation also plans to remove bittersweet vines and invasive plants that have overtaken the land.

The property will never be developed and will be held for conservation purposes, Mr. Moore said.

Sheriff’s Meadow purchased the property from Virginia Mattern for $100,000 on Dec. 19.

“We are very grateful to Mrs. Mattern for her conservation vision and for her generosity in making this property available at such a bargain price,” Mr. Moore said. “We look forward to being the steward of this land and a good neighbor in the Manaca Hill community.”
