Blackstone Park Conservation District is a 45-acre natural woodland in Providence, RI, featuring two ponds, York Pond and Hockey Pond, as well as open meadows. Serving as a green buffer between city streets and the Seekonk River, this park supports a diverse range of plants and wildlife habitats, attracting migrating birds in Spring and Fall.
Established as a Conservation District in 2003, Blackstone Park faces challenges from invasive plants, which the organization actively works to manage. With a rich history dating back to the late 19th century, the park offers trails, fishing opportunities, and a connection to the region's natural history, making it a beloved destination for walkers, birders, and nature enthusiasts.
