Beth Rogers and Jeffrey Katz Preserve
Donated by John Katz, the Beth Rogers and Jeffrey Katz Preserve is a 26-acre parcel of land at 203 North Street in Roxbury. The preserve offers significant conservation value by connecting with other adjacent preserved properties and protecting a critical portion of the Battle Swamp Brook watershed, a prisine water source in the state. Other characteristics include a wetland habitat–a natural pond and vernal pools–and a healthy hemlock forest void of understory shrubs and invasives. The preserve was named after John Katz’s parents who have a love for nature.
