Welcome to
Acushnet, Massachusetts!
Originally an agricultural community embracing
the headwaters of the Acushnet River, the
residential town of Acushnet has retained its
rural atmosphere, while also providing a home
for various industries. Through the 1800s, the
town was the site of water-powered factories and
boat yards; in the 1990s, the town hosted
construction, manufacturing and agri/aquaculture
industries. It is the original home of the
Titleist golf ball. Acushnet is a quiet friendly
community with a population of 10,607 people,
with many miles of winding, country roads.
Residents take great pride in the town's
schools, openness, and feeling of family. Each
Fall, during the well-known Apple/Peach
Festival, Acushnet's growers, artisans, and
Historical Society welcome visitors from far and
wide.
