J.C. Phillips Nature Preserve

This Nature reserve is split between Beverly an Wenham.  This nature area is a great place to walk, run and hike.  The preserve borders Wenham Lake, which supplies the drinking water for the cities of Beverly and Salem and for a portion of the town of Wenham.  As you walk on the property you can view the tribute to Dom Manzoli, a dedicated citizen advocate who, for over three decades, fought to protect the water quality of Wenham Lake and its watershed.
