The Town of Westford
Massachusetts was incorporated on September 23, 1729. The Town is located
to the west of Lowell and north of Concord almost to the New Hampshire
border. Physically, Westford is a very beautiful town with rolling hills,
lakes, and apple orchards. Originally Westford was noted for its farms
and woolen mills, but today is mostly a bedroom community with an emphasis
on high tech.
Westford has a beautiful state of
the art library, a very active community center with offerings for all
ages, an active recreation department, an excellent school system, the
Nashoba Valley Ski Area, and two town beaches on spring-fed ponds.
Every year the Town has an Apple
Blossom Festival in May with a parade and the crowning of an apple blossom
queen, a Strawberry Festival in June featuring a wonderful craft fair and
strawberry shortcake. The Town of Westford truly has something for everyone.
Westford Mass is located in Northeastern
Massachusetts, bordered by Littleton and Groton on the west, Tyngsborough
on the north, Chelmsford on the east, Carlisle on the southeast, and Acton
on the south. Westford is 23 miles northwest of Boston, 35 miles northeast
of Worcester, 86 miles northeast of Springfield, and 220 miles from New
York City. |
