Welcome to Tewksbury, Massachusetts 12 Bartlet Street, Andover, MA 01810 P: 978.475.5100 F: 978.475.5101 About Tewksbury The Town of Tewksbury is a historic community of 32,516 residents, comprising 21.06 square miles in land size. It is 21 miles north of Boston, located between the Concord and Merrimack Rivers, on slightly rolling lowland terrain. Tewksbury was gradually settled from Billerica during the early decades of the 18th century and incorporated in 1734. The original economic base depended on farming and grazing with lumbering as a secondary activity. A saw mill was established on Trull Brook about 1736. Flower growers of Tewksbury developed greenhouses and market gardens between 1890 and 1915 as the town's dominant business; later hothouses raised and cultivated award winning hybrid carnations and other flowers commercially for city markets. By 1976, Tewksbury grew approximately 2,000,000 carnations, and was hailed as the “Carnation Capital of the World” by Yankee Magazine. In present times, the town has attracted a variety of national and international companies, as well as local and family run businesses because of its convenient location and full-service infrastructure.
