Poxabogue Field (adjacent to Poxabogue County Park) is an eight-acre open field. It was purchased by Southampton Town’s Community Preservation Fund for agricultural purposes. Yet it also falls within the hydrological boundaries of the Long Pond Greenbelt. The Friends of the Long Pond Greenbelt's position is to further protect it from any sort of development, including agricultural use. They want it to be re-designated as open space, restoring the old field to a grassland instead, akin to their management of Vineyard Field.
