About Us

Sippewissett is a section of Falmouth, Massachusetts located along the eastern shore of Buzzards Bay extending roughly from Quissett Avenue to Palmer Avenue.

The Sippewissett Association was incorporated in 1969 by a group of landowners with a shared interest in preserving the natural attributes of the area. 

If you have concerns germane to our charter, please contact us. We may be able to provide useful background information. Click here for a list of current board members and officers.
