Facilities

The Russel and Sawmill Preserve is a 53-acre tract of land located in North Plymouth. Trails wind throughout the Preserve and provide pedestrian access to both Russel Pond and Sawmill Pond; both of these ponds are excellent fishing locations and are seasonally stocked with trout by the Massachusetts Department of Fisheries and Wildlife. Trails south of the ponds wind through a unique upland habitat comprised of old-growth mixed forest. Towering white pines are found throughout the Preserve and create an understory that is mostly devoid of vegetation; a feature not typically found in southeastern Massachusetts.
