One of the joys of Martha's Vineyard are its many trails and conservation areas that are protected for public enjoyment and recreation by various organizations.  One such organization is Sheriffs Meadow Foundation, who operate Cedar Tree Neck in West Tisbury.

While most people remember award-winning actor James Cagney as a song and dance man, on Martha’s Vineyard he was known as a hands on farmer. In 1936, on his very first visit to Martha’s Vineyard, James Cagney fell in love with the beauty and tranquility of the island and acquired rolling acres of land with stone walls bordering the fields and a farmhouse dating back to the 1720s. For more than 35 years he spent several months a year as a hands-on manager of horses, cattle, pigs, chickens and turkeys, and swapped stories with his fishermen friends in the nearby harbor village of Menemsha.

New to market is this rare offering at 137 Quansoo Road, Chilmark, with over three acres of pond front land, waterviews and access to the Atlantic ocean via the Tisbury Great Pond or from Quansoo.

It's September (already) and there's a universal opinion on the island that, despite having the same number of weeks as any other year, this summer went faster than most! The prime July and August weeks flew by but as always we are squeezing out that extra month of September, with its bright blue skies, fluffy white clouds, spectacular sunsets, quieter roads and restaurants and of course the fishing Derby.

The beaches of Martha's Vineyard are some of the most beautiful in the world and are one of the reasons the Vineyard is a destination for many throughout the summer months for swimming, surfing, fishing, clam bakes and good old fashioned R&R.
