Foster’s Pond and Goldsmith Woodlands Conservation Area

Andover, Massachusetts

Welcome to Foster's Pond and Goldsmith Woodlands Conservation Area in Andover, Massachusetts. In the early 20th century, much of this land was a private retreat owned by the Goldsmith Family. Bessie Goldsmith was an avid conservationist and she helped this place become a nature preserve in 1977. To this day, some of the plants she planted still remain. Come out and hike the trails.
