Shipyard Farm was generously donated to FALPT by Peter T. Gargas in 1997. This working coastal farm borders a beautiful salt marsh along the shores of Nasketucket Bay, with scenic views of West Island.
As you walk the trail, keep an eye out for deer, rabbits, herons, ospreys, and seagulls. You may also spot birds hunting for fish and crabs scurrying across the muddy salt marsh. With its peaceful setting, diverse wildlife, and beautiful coastal scenery, Shipyard Farm is a perfect place for families to explore and enjoy nature.
