 The Whipple House meadow offers a small park and public trail open to the public that provides a beautiful view of the Ipswich River. The meadow has been undergoing a long-term restoration process during which invasive species are eliminated and replaced with local natives. Educational and informational signage have been installed around the site. Ipswich’s Conservation Commission has enacted a conservation restriction on a portion of the property, protecting it from development in the future.
