Last week, Representative Donna Scheuren visited the Allebach Property to present Township Supervisors with a $250,000 check, awarded through the Keystone Community Initiative grant.
We are also thrilled to share that the Township recently secured $1,794,000 from the DCNR's Land Conservation and Acquisition grant program. Together, these awards bring our total grant funding for the Allebach Property acquisition to over $2 million!
Township staff are continuing to pursue additional funding opportunities to maximize support for this project. We thank our state representatives for their support. Stay tuned for further updates!
It was an honor to present grant funding to Lower Salford Township to support the purchase and preservation of the 62.65-acre Allebach Farm, located next to Henning’s Market.
This land could have been developed into commercial buildings and as many as 350 apartments and twin homes. Instead, the township is working to protect this valuable open space for future generations. Preserving farmland is about keeping our community’s character, honoring our agricultural heritage and ensuring our children and grandchildren can enjoy these beautiful landscapes for years to come. I’m proud to support this important effort alongside all the township officials and township employees that work so hard to preserve the places that make our community home.
