A ROUND THE SOUTH SHOR E
Carver
Carver is best-known for its cranberry production and
farmland. When the town’s iron industry slowed in the late
1800s, community members began putting local swamps to
use for cranberry harvesting. Today, that tradition continues
and there are many working bogs, such as Edgewood
Bogs, Fresh Meadows, and Flax Pond Farm. Those who
are looking to live in Carver are looking for a rural lifestyle
with access to acres of land as well as privacy. Just
about 12,000 residents are in Carver, which means many
properties are spread out throughout the 39.7-mile town.
Carver isn’t on the ocean, but there are sandy beaches along
Johns Pond and Sampson Pond. Both areas are also popular
for fishing.
