28. Salem History: The Salem Willows

Listen Later

Who doesn't like “a trip to the seaside” to "take in the air"? Well that's exactly why one of Salem's hidden gems was created. Join local tour guides Sarah & Jeffrey as they chat all about Salem Willows Park. Things may have changed over the past 220 years, but we still have those same European white willow trees, there's still a boardwalk filled with restaurants and entertainment, and you can still dip your feet in the ocean.
