Neighbors For Crebilly

Neighbors For Crebilly Community advocacy for Crebilly Farm At this point, there are likely two outcomes. Neighbors For Crebilly is not anti-development and anti-landowner rights.

Crebilly Farm is located in Westtown Township, Pa and bordering Routes 202 and 926, South New Street and West Pleasant Grove Road. Recently, this 325-acre parcel of farmland featuring a portion of The Brandywine Battlefield was sold to Toll Brothers, Inc. Soon, it's expected Toll will submit plans to the township in hopes of gaining permits to construct up to 317 homes on the parcel. Neighbors For

Crebilly is a group of concerned citizens formed to voice the collective concerns of township and neighboring residents aspiring to redirect the outcome of the pending development. First, is where Toll completes the sale and begins moving forward with their plans once approved. The second, like all real estate deals, there's always a chance the transaction will not complete and the sellers will have to seek another option. With both of these outcomes, Neighbors For Crebilly is positioned to work with the township and the developer to seek a lower density and preserve historical battleground acreage. We'll also keep in mind that economic impact studies and others are crucial in this process. If the transaction doesn't complete, Neighbors For Crebilly will work with the family to preserve the open space and seek funds from conservancies and local, state, national and private sources. We are supporters of careful and planned growth while preserving open and historical space for today's enjoyment and future generations. The goals of this group and page are to keep the community informed by focusing entirely on efforts and matters pertaining to Crebilly. We hope the page can be an interim public resource and you will share it with your neighbors and friends. Please check back often for news and updates. Neighbors For Crebilly is comprised of volunteers that are not compensated. We are always seeking new volunteers and public comment. Please email us at: [email protected]

CREBILLY FARM UPDATE — YOUR VOICES WERE HEARD. 🌿

Tonight, something beautiful happened. Neighbors from Westtown Township and surrounding communities came together — as they always do when it matters most — and filled the Board of Supervisors meeting to stand up for Crebilly Farm.

The proposed zoning language that would have opened the area near the Route 202/926 intersection to commercial development was tabled. And that happened because of this community, because of this family.

And it was Vince who said it best, standing up to address the room: “Thank you to all of you who continued to show up — we are family.”

He’s right. We are.

What makes Crebilly so extraordinary is exactly that — it belongs to all of us. Many who showed up tonight aren’t even Westtown Township residents. They couldn’t vote on its future. But they came anyway, because this land doesn’t stop at township lines. It is part of the Brandywine Battlefield. It is an ecological treasure. And under Pennsylvania’s Constitution — Article 1, Section 27 — every person in this Commonwealth has the right to clean air, clean water, and the preservation of our natural and historic spaces. That right belongs to all of us.

There is also deep concern about the historic tavern on the corner, which could be lost. If that matters to you, now is the time to make your voice heard.

Margaret Mead once said: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world — indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

We are living proof.

Crebilly is a shared heritage, a gathering place, a promise to the children and grandchildren who will one day walk those fields and call it theirs too. Tonight, we showed up to make sure that promise is kept.

To every neighbor who came out, called a friend, or simply held this place in their heart — thank you. We are in this together, and together is exactly how we’ll see it through. 💚

Attention Neighbors—
Please consider attending the meeting tonight to learn more about the effort to Save Forsythe Farm.

When the community came together to preserve Crebilly Farm, it was a collective effort—neighbors across surrounding areas and residents working side by side to protect it for future generations.

That same kind of shared commitment can make a difference here.

Forsythe Farm is an important part of our local history, and with community support, it can be preserved for generations to come.🌿
