Brooks Estate Spring Spruce-up and Open House

Saturday, April 29, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

It’s time for the Medford-Brooks Estate Land Trust’s annual Spring Spruce-up and Open House event. Come lend a hand, working on outdoor and indoor tasks, including some painting, anytime between 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Gloves and tools provided, but additional loppers, rakes, etc., welcome. Wear work clothes. Tours of the Shepherd Brooks Manor will commence at 2 p.m., with the last tour at 3:40 p.m. Please email inquiries@brooksestate.org to RSVP or with questions.

Parking note: Do not park in Oak Grove Cemetery or on Grove Street; best to park on nearby side streets off of Grove Street and walk up the access drive to the estate. Limited spaces are available at the Boardwalk lot along the access drive, and at the Manor, with preference at the Manor for handicapped parking.

M-BELT is a nonprofit organization that manages the Brooks Estate, owned by the City of Medford. A former Victorian summer retreat for Peter Chardon Brooks and Shepherd Brooks, the property is graced by two Victorian buildings, the Shepherd Brooks Manor and Carriage House (1880), both slated for adaptive re-use as community assets. The property also offers Brooks Pond and 50 acres of open space for birds, wildlife and nature lovers.
