We've got GREAT news! We need just a few more signatures to reach 6,000 signatures supporting the preservation of Patterson Farm! When we began this effort we wondered if we could encourage even 100 people to show support for the farm we love. We're SO EXCITED to be nearing 6,000 signatures! Will you help us reach the next milestone by signing and sharing?
Why is it a great idea to preserve and restore Patterson Farm?
- Food Security! Patterson Farm has continuously supplied fresh food to the Bucks County area and worldwide since 1683,
- History! The 350th anniversary of the settlement of Patterson Farm by Quaker immigrant Thomas Janney & family is approaching,
- A great Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) share program! To support our local, award-winning 5th generation farmers, the Stewart family who currently steward the land,
- Wisdom - from past to future! Patterson Farms' presence helps interpret the story of where we came from and informs where we are going,
- Because YOU can pick up FRESH, LOCAL, produce grown on Patterson Farm if you shop at a number of local markets in Bucks County, PA,
- Natural benefits! Because farmland helps mitigate the damaging effects of climate change and provides a home for wildlife.
- We've put together an exciting plan to rejuvenate Patterson Farm with our proposed Patterson Agriculture and Heritage Center! We envision a RESTORED PATTERSON FARM to celebrate the farm's 350th anniversary. Visit our website for information. Please support the plan.
Please continue to sign and share this petition to let Lower Makefield's elected officials know you CARE about the future of Patterson Farm, a National Register property. Farms DO matter. Thank you for your signature and support.
