Sabat Meadow Revitalization
1865 Bay Avenue in Mattituck
Parking
Field
The Park District is transforming the former baseball field and lawn into a native pollinator meadow with a half-mile walking trail. Please join us on Planting Day, Saturday April 26, at noon, for the next step in the project. Over the following years, as budgets allow, the District will move the tennis courts on the property and build a gazebo where the current courts are.
Our plans for this property have evolved over time, and past iterations included a dog park and pickleball; neither is planned for Sabat Meadow any longer. Instead, we have built a dog park at our Aldrich Lane property (grand opening, when the bells and whistles are done, on May 17, but it's open now.) If in future years our budget allows, we will build pickleball courts at the Aldrich property as well.
​
We had hoped to hold Planting Day last fall, but the drought thwarted us. Nonetheless, emails we sent then are still relevant for the upcoming effort; check them out here: October 18, ​October 25, November 1,
and November 12, 2024.
